Hola everyone!! We're fast approaching our 16th Annual Keyport Spanish American Festival on August 9th, 2014, and we're excited to bring you another great lineup of entertainment, food, contests, community service recognition, and, if history is on our side, a beautiful and sunny day to celebrate with us.
This past year brought us some challenges as the Keyport Spanish American Club continued with our Sandy recovery efforts. Those challenges have been met and we're fully recovered and ready to serve our members. Drop us a line if you're interested in joining or would like more information on our services and mission.
We're happy to announce that the expansion of our Academic Scholarship Program expansion into greater Monmouth County was a great success. We received essay submittals from many Monmouth County high schools and it was a pleasure reading the perspectives of our Latino high achievers. The prize this year was $2,000 and we'll be introducing the winner at the festival.
The funding for the scholarship awards is driven by our membership dues and raffle ticket sales at the festival. This year we're offering a Super 50/50 raffle to help with the funding. We're hoping you'll participate as a buyer, seller, or both! For more information, please call, 973-879-7069 or 908-902-1734.
Please mark your calendars for August 9th and dust off your dancing shoes. Bring your appetite and join us for some fun in the sun in beautiful Keyport, NJ!!
