Queen for a day "Mother's Day"

Uploaded: May 06, 2016 | Entered: May 06, 2016 14:57:43

Description

I know everyday is "Mother's Day" but Thursday May 5th our Rotary Club threw a Mother's Day and Cinco De Mayo party for our elderly poor residents at "Rotary Village". We served lunch, drew for "Queen of the Day" and had plenty of prizes for them. I took photos of all (will share some on BP) and made a 8.5 X 11 copy for each which I know they will enjoy. This is Laura Garcia dancing around the room after she was crowned Queen for a Day.

The first thing that struck me Emile, is the fun she is having, the smiles on everyones faces and the good time you folks provided for them. That has to put a smile on your face to. Wonderful story picture. #11471255
