The non-profit organization C.H.A.F.F. organized the Clarksville Hispanic Heritage Latin Festival for the 4th consecutive time, and it was a huge success once again, as approximately 5,000 people came throughout the day to enjoy this celebration which is already becoming a tradition in the area, and which was attended by Montgomery County Mayor Wes Golden who came accompanied by his entire family to celebrate as well. It must be said that at the beginning it rained heavily in the area, but that did not discourage anyone since the event was very busy throughout the day.
It was very nice to see how while hundreds of people were enjoying the delicious snacks that the different vintages offered, others were strolling through the different craft stands and also meeting the sponsors of the place as was the case of this year's main sponsor US Bank, who had many gifts for all the attendees.
This festival celebrates the independence of Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Chile, Belize and Puerto Rico, but it welcomes people from all over the world with all their hearts, and it was noticeable since all over the place there were people from all over the world dancing and enjoying the good music of Somos Tu Rumba Latina and its excellent programmer and DJ May, who was in charge of the indoor stage and who shared with the masters of ceremonies Lany and Gloria who conducted the event very well for the different artists who performed as the group; Fer Gallardo and the Juniors del Rancho, the Miss Hispanic Heritage pageant, all this while the outdoor stage was in charge of Gabriela and Belinda and DJ Jas, who presented the Danza Azteca Guerreros Quetzalcóatl, the Raíces de Mi Tierra Folkloric Ballet, Mariachi Viva México, the Lirios Folkloricos Ballet, the D’PR Tropical Music group, who were in charge of closing the event.
