Our work is completed...

     This morning the Carnival Charlotte Committee held its weekly meeting at my home. For some of the members it was the first opportunity to see the heads, who are still lined up on kitchen counters, bookshelves and tables. 
     María del Carmen and I touched up several heads, completed the challenge to "rescue" a head with major problems, the spray hat eaten some of the styrofoam...
    The big Harlequin got a make over and is ready to preside over the reception area. I glued back some spots, applied more rhinestones and María del Carmen brought a steamer to even out all the creases.
   The enthusiasm continues to grow among LAWA volunteers, there are over 70 fabulous items for the silent and life auction, the menu for the night will please the most demanding palate, music and entertainment will make the most lethargic person get on the dance floor...

Carnival Charlotte 2013 represents a big Thank You to our sponsors and donors, who so generously are giving their treasure to support LAWA's programs. It helps our Latino youth, and women become a vibrant part of the Charlotte community. 

While you are reading these lines, do pick up the phone (704 552 1003), and reserve a seat at Carnival. Too expensive? Not really, during the next 365 days, you will have spent about $3.00 a day! It's a whole year of "feeling good" knowing you helped the community in which we all live.
