Immediately after the Labor Day parade, Fiesta America 4-H Dance Club will perform in Jubilee Park.
Fiesta America 4-H Dance Club currently serves more than 50 students, with more interest every day from others.
They have performed at the Roseburg Spring Fair, the Mother’s Day PowWow, 4-H Talent Show, Walk on the Rogue, many area schools, Boatnik Parade, Josephine County Fair, Jackson County Fair, I.V. Lions Labor Day Festival, and Oregon State Fair in August.
Said the club, “Learning the dances and making the costumes enriches the lives of our participants by preserving the cultures of our great melting pot, America.
“These kids have practiced all year to learn new dances and are excited about performing once again at the Festival,” said Tammy Preciado, 4-H coordinator for the group.
“The 4-H organization,” she said, “encourages leadership training, citizenship skills and life skills in all activities, providing kids with a sense of belonging, accomplishment, independence and generosity.
