The theme of our float in the July 4th Parade was 'Ride the Cultural Wave' (in keeping with the 'Surf's Up" theme of the Parade)...well we rode that wave celebrating arts, culture and community...singing and dancing with the fabulous Rip It Ups all the way through town!  We made all kinds of new friends, had more fun than we could have imagined and won the award for "Most Artistic Float"!  We can't wait for next year!

This week we continue the celebration with our Fleet Moves Dance Festival friends...classes for adults and kids here every morning this week.   On Wednesday, The Groovalatos will be in the house...on Saturday some of our favorite kids will be here showing off their Capoeira skills and serving up a Brazilian lunch to support Capoeira classses at the Hall.  And on Sunday the Mosquito Story Slam returns to the Hall for the summer!
