| Opera in the ParkOpera in the Park 2008 was an incredible success; with more than 4000 people in attendance. The music was divine, the weather perfect. People enjoyed the food from Jensen's Finest Foods, Las Casuelas the Original, and E & E Pel's, while others enjoyed homemade picnic baskets. Wine and champagne were enjoyed by many in a celebratory mood---- Opera in the Park always brings out the best in everyone. Children romped and played at the funzone, had their faces painted and played goal soccer; all while hearing the beautiful strains of Operatic arias. Over 15 philanthropic and cultural organizations distributed information about their organizations, while many vendors exhibited their beautiful creations. The crowd rose to an standing ovation with the finale of Nessun Dorma, articulated so beautifully by Daniel Montenegro and all the other singers. The amount of joy on the faces of those in the crowd was obvious by the tears on many of their faces. No one wanted to leave. Opera in
the Park will be held on Sunday, April 19, 2009, from noon - 4:30. There
will be a special party following the performance at the Mizell Senior
Center. This will be a buffet, with more music by our singers, and lots of
good camaraderie for those who still want the high of the day to go on into
the evening. Information can be obtained by calling: (760) 325-6107. If
