Hello
Everyone,
The Indiana LULAC 45th
Annual State Convention was held on May 3rd & 4th, 2002. The
Convention began on May 3rd with a Cinco de Mayo Dance (May 5th
dance), which is celebrated, because of a small town in Mexico called
Puebla, which fought for independence from France and won. The LULAC
Host council was Michigan City # 5006 and the dance was held at the
Heston Hill Convention Center in LaPorte, Indiana. The evening was
filled with great food and great dancing with the band from
"Together". Great job and three cheers for Michigan City
Council # 5006.
The convention was held on May
the 4th, 2002 at the Holiday Inn Conference Center &
Holidome in Michigan City, Indiana. The convention began at 9:00 am and
convened at 3:00pm. After registration and a Continental Breakfast, the
business part of the meeting began at 9:00 am. There was much work to be
done in the morning hours and through out the day. Lunchtime was very
good and we were very honored to have, Mr. John Fernandez, the only
Hispanic Mayor in Indiana, from Bloomington, Indiana. be our Speaker at
the Luncheon. Mr. Fernandez has served as Bloomington’s Mayor and
Chief Executive since 1995.
I am glad to Report to everyone
that I have been elected again as the Indiana Deputy State Director for
Women for the year 2002/2003. I hope that I have served you well in my
position and again if you have any questions for me concerning the
website or women’s affairs, please contact me at
