In 1999, Greg Messina stood on a New York City dock and watched tangoing couples kick up their heels. “They were dancing intertwined, with strange kicks and turns,” recalls the NEO Tango founder. “My heart rate increased as I stepped into this magical scene.” Tonight, Messina will dance as part of the free Street Beats series. “I have happily become a tango junkie,” he says.

Swim at a Public Pool

For those of us not lucky enough to have a friend with a pool, the region’s public swimming offerings are the next best thing. There are, of course, Cleveland’s public pools, but with erratic openings based on temperatures and staffing, they are hardly worth counting on. Luckily, you can snag a guest day pass in many suburbs where the water is warm and the beach chairs bountiful: Dragga Pool in Mayfield Heights will run you $10 as a non-resident, Walter’s Grove in Parma will cost you just $6, Parma Heights’ primo pool awaits for $8, Foster and Becks Pools in Lakewood will let you in for $5.50, and Beachwood’s absolutely stunning outdoor aquatic center will refresh and entertain you for $10.
