Pines park to have Puerto Rican festival

Christmas might be kaput for 2008, but that doesn't mean you can't experience one final holiday send-off.


C.B. Smith Park
at 900 N. Flamingo Road will play host to the 3 Kings Day Puerto Rican Festival on Jan. 4 from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

During the Rumbon & Parrandon cultural Christmas celebration visitors can sample traditional Puerto Rican holiday goods, desserts and beverages while grooving to the folklore tunes of cuatro guitarist Prodigio Claudio, Felix Nieves, and composer Ramiro Malagón.

After the musicians leave the stage, guests will hit the dance floor for the Fiesta All-Star Band's salsa tunes, popular Christmas songs and an exhibition of "Parranda" - a Puerto Rican dance style.

Admission for 3 Kings Day is $3, and profits benefit My Horizon, a nonprofit organization. Call 954-550-5355 or visit www.prfiestas.com.
