The first annual East Coast Salsa Congress 2001 was held in at the Nevele Grand Resort in the Catskills New York on August 17, and 18, 2001.

Many groups from around the world performed in two sets the first night. Then there was some social dancing on a ply wood-floor that was laid over the carpet in the main ballroom. Also there was alive band that started to play before the performances ended. Then there was a pool party.

This event was produced by David Meléndez and Luis Zegarra in conjuention with Albert Torres Productions.
