Katy, an intern at La Aldea Infantil reports:
We saw a lot of success and achievement this week at the Aldea. The running trail project was completed and that called for a celebration. In connection with the 22nd anniversary of the Aldea Infantil on August 12, Friday was set-up as a day of races. There were several races, each according to the ages of the children. Tio Pepe was the announcer and pulled out a loudspeaker. I was chosen to lead all the races to show the way to go. The kids all wore their athletic school uniforms, and were matching in blue shorts and white shirts. The rush of excitement for racing affected so many of the youth, not only the winners but many participants. Smiles abounded and everyone cheered so loud and fervently for their friends and schoolmates. It was neat to see everyone so bonded and excited about physical activity.
