Along the Franklin Avenue they have dedicated their delegations to bringing our culture through traditional music and dresses to a town that houses about 200,000 Panamanian people, and in second and third generation but they have never forgotten their roots.

The parade was headed by Maricel de Mulino, first lady of Panama and Maria Eugenia Herrera, Minister of Culture, who emphasized in his words of gratitude that these new generations of Panamanian people have at their heart the colors of our flag and have left a legacy of our roots in their children and their grandchildren.

"For 30 years you have built a life on this earth that I have received with respect and opened your doors to them, now you with your families and with your community have been able to maintain the link with our earth, our knowledge, customs and traditions, without losing the link with what we are," said Minister Herrera.

"I take this opportunity to recognize the brotherhood of this nation: The United States of America, that opened its doors to people from other countries, to this people that wants to know the history of citizens of the world who celebrate their cultural heritage and share it with gratitude," she concluded.

The first lady and the minister were accompanied by the Panamanian ambassadors and consules. The parade, filled with color and music, had 21 delegations from Panama, and the groupings that reside in the United States.
