Festival Latinoamericano

Currently I am on the planning committee for this year's Festival Latinoamericano. Festival Latinoamericano is held every Labor Day weekend on the Provo Courthouse lawn and draws thousands of people, especially local Hispanic families. This event celebrates the local Hispanic community as families come together to eat good Latin food, watch dance performances, learn more about Hispanic cultures, and so forth. My responsibility in the planning committee is to ensure that community resources are showcased through the event. This year we are planning on having a community tent that will highlight different community resources through informative displays and family-friendly activities. We're also hoping to help community agencies put together short DVD clips with information about their services.
