" It’s that time of year again where we are preparing for the 2024 Romarias! My brother Joey Silva and I are chairing the Barca this year in memory of our grandparents Juvaldo & Dolores Madruga and our beloved friend Augustinho Mauricio, who loved this annual tradition and participated every year! If you would like to make a donation please see details in the enclosed letter. If you would like to participate and sing in any of the groups we would love to see you at Sunday's practices! All details of the event are below. If you have any questions reach out! "
