but not to live salsa music. It gets hot in the middle of summer, but
it’s going to get a lot hotter when bands like Tropicoso, Salsa
Caliente and ¡Zumba! lay down Latino rhythms. Don’t know how to salsa?
No problem. Instructors on the dance floor will lend a hand. And when
it gets a little too hot, you can cool down with a cold soft drink or
adult beverage. www.myfountainsquare.com
