Annual Valentine with “Salsa Express” D.J. at Don Eduardo Mexican Restaurant in Jensen Beach

By Herman Santa

As expected, the “Dance of the Lovers” became the destination for hundreds of salsa dancers on Saturday, February 17, as they secured their seats from 9 p.m. in search of the party and fun.

The task was not easy for the Board of Directors, as the tickets sold out a day before the party. Many people, especially the young ones who seemed to have forgotten about the existence of nightclubs and the famous “Pubs” during Valentine’s Day weekend. This celebration became the perfect opportunity to reconnect with old friends and meet new faces in a clean, healthy, and joyful environment.

The music was provided by Robert Roldan and his “Salsa Express.” Robert had a repertoire of modern music for us. Bachata, merengue, cumbia, and bolero, especially for the lovers, were all present. As always, Bob entertained us by making us dance the “Soul Train,” Salsa Soul, and other rhythms from the 1970s. For the young ones, he entertained them with “Hip Hop” and other modern rhythms.

During a break, the president of the Herman Santa Club thanked the decoration committee for the decoration of the hall, introduced the new Board of Directors, and praised the past administration for their work. The 50/50 raffle was also held, and certificates from our sponsors were distributed. The winners were: Iliana Zequeira and Lourdes Sarkar for the 50/50, Omar Tribulo with the Don Eduardo’s certificate, Elizabeth Caraballo and Jose Berroa with Boston Market certificates, and Judah Williams and Ron Bryson with certificates from Choco’s.

Finally, we would like to thank our sponsors for this event. They were: Eduardo Pozos from “Don Eduardo Mexican Restaurant” in Hutchinson Island, Socrates Mejia from Choco’s Auto Detailing in Port St. Lucie, Dr. Jerry Perlmutter from Quality Dental Care in Ft. Pierce, and Norma Colón, Manager of Boston Market in Port St. Lucie. At this party, it was demonstrated that the “Spanish American Club, Inc.” is more alive than ever.
