Salvation Army Orphanage Annual Dance
16 December 2011 | Marina Mazatlan
Taya
Saturday afternoon at 15:00, a group of some 25 children age 3 to 17, from the Salvation Army Orphanage, gave their annual performance to the fleet. The venue was the roof top of the Marina Mazatlan office.
The show lasted over an hour and featured folkloric dances from the states of Sinaloa (here) and other surrounding states like Nayarit to the south of us. The costumes we very colorful and their performance very good.
The show was attended by some 60 sailors and we donated 18,000 pesos to keep the orphanage going. It is private with no government subsidies. They give dancing performances to gather the necessary funds to cover their expenses.
