March 30th 2009 - Rosa and Susana stay after English class. (We meet twice a week in a basement office to study English as a foreign language.) They say "We want to start a folkloric ballet here in Mendota. Can you help us? Can we use the office to practice in the evenings?" My simple answer: "Please."
And so it's born. In minutes, we have a time and date for the first public performance, support from other agencies in the community (Thanks to Mario with the Youth Services Bureau), ideas for costumes, music, choreography, and the first practice set to start in only a few hours.

It's so inspiring to see an idea come to fruition through the efforts of moms.
