WE JUST THOUGHT WE WOULD SAY THANK YOU FOR A GREAT NIGHT.
THAT WAS KATIES FIRST TIME IN A SETTING WITH A SALSA BAND. SHE IS MUCH MORE CURIOUS TO LEARN SPANISH AND HOPES THAT WE ATTEND
MORE CULTURAL FUNCTIONS IN THE FUTURE. PLEASE STAY IN CONTACT WITH US. IT WAS A PLEASURE TO HAVE HAD A CHANCE TO KNOW YOU
AND YOUR HUSBAND. WE HOPE THAT WE CAN DO DINNER SOMETIME. WE HAVE SOME IDEAS AND WOULD LIKE TO BE MORE INVOLVED WITH YOUR
EFFORTS. HAVE A BLESSED DAY.
MARK AND KATIE DELEON.
Lillian, I read the article "A Sense of Hertitage" in today's paper. Good article and exposure/publicity
for you and your efforts. Congratulations!! Thanks, Gladys
I see these dances as an opportunity for the latin community to enjoy/share their music/hertitage, not necessarily
as a vehicle for more acceptance. Hispanics are the largest and fastest growing minority in the US. The new argument
is when will we stop being called a minority when there will be more of us then them.

Lillian, Great site!...I've added it to my browser! I'll keep in touch and will look for
your updates on LGM...very classy. Dennis Papp
Congratulations: We are very proud of our Puerto Rican sister. Keep it going.
Don't ever give up your dream. Stay in touch.

CONGRATULATIONS LILLIAN! I think it is great what you are doing for the community!
Do you accept GREEKS at these parties???? Or am I an honorary PR?????? Guilty by affiliation?
Lillian, Great article! I hope you can build on the publicity and make the dance
troupe and Feb. dance great successes. Dennis
Dear Ms. Torres, Tonight
I was looking at a past newspaper and read about your group and aspirations for it. I am sorry that I did not know about
it before or I would have contacted you sooner.
Sincerely, Susan J Swanson, Chairman 7th Annual IFG

I really enjoy the music on your website!
Lillian,
Of course I remember you, vivacious and energetic lady. Looking at the quality flyer
and well organized invitation, I would expect no less from you. I've received about 6 copies of this from different
people - you're doing a great job.
I look forward to working with you in the future and best
of luck with this event.

Hi Lillian,
Just wanted to say we had a great time at the valentines day dance last saturday. My husband and I are definitely
looking forward to upcoming events. Thanks for all your hard word and for keeping our heritage alive.
Sincerely,
John and Luz Robatto
Lillian,
Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your fantastic event...what
a wonderful success!
I applaud your skill at organizing the event and keeping people involved
all night.
I look forward to many future opportunities to work together.
Dennis
HEY LILLIAN,
I'M VERY HAPPY FOR YOU. HOPE TO MAKE IT A REPEAT. YOU GUYS ARE GREAT PEOPLE TO WORK FOR....
LOVE, GILLY
Hello, Please send me information on upcoming events. Thank you, Claudia
Hi Lillian: We indeed have a good time last Friday. Thank you for constantly trying to bring the Northwest Indiana
Latino community toegether in festive venues. I am sending you an email address of Jaime Viteri. He communicates
with a large Chicago base latino community regarding activities, promotions, jobs, etc.. Introduce yourself
and talk to him about advertising your activities (free) along with the activities he is announcing. This would
certainly expand your client base and perhaps make future activites even more successful.

Hola Lillian.
My husband and I enjoyed La Noche Caribeņa very much. I
often ask my husband to take me dancing and because of the drudgery of driving to Chicago, we never go. I especially liked the green balloon palm trees! Having the food available was
the icing on the cake. You know how we Latinos love a party with food. =}
The dance groups did a wonderful job of opening up the evening. Thank you so much for all your hard work and a thank you to Dennis Papp as well.
He hung in there and did a good job of M.C.
God bless you.

Hi Lillian,
My wife Mayo and I had a great time at the dance last night.
Thank you for those announcements about Mayo's during last night's events. My daughter Esmeralda and her boyfriend Carlos
also had an awesome time too. Thanks again for a wonderful time that you planned for the Hispanics here. Now instead
of going to Chicago for this kind of entertainment and dancing we can look forward to dances like that here more often
in the future.

Hello, this is Carolina and I just wanted to say thank you so much for giving me the opportunity
to perform in your grand event! It means a lot to me that you remember my talent from so long ago. So, thanks again. xoxoxo
Lillian,
Just wanted to say that the dance was a very hot
one. How about a Christmas show with lots of Cuatros. Maybe even some Trios.
Fred Salazar
Dear Lillian,
I just want to congratulate you for your passion and
energy. I admire a person who knows what they want and then work hard and making it a reality.I
am truly proud to say I am your friend.
Love, Wilma
Hi Lillian, first of all I want to thank you for the great job you did on the Carribean night dance. We
had a great time. You really out did yourself.
Please keep me posted on any and all matrix events.

day at work.

OMG! LIllian this is like big time . . . Congratulations!!! I am so happy that you can fulfill this dream
of bringing Salsa back to its fullest...Good job and keep representing the Latinos because we really appreciate it.
Lillian:
Kudos to you for taking the helm and bringing to the Hispanic community an opportunity to reach that essence of what
it means to be hispanic but even more personal to me Boricua.
I have yearned for something like what you have pulled together to reach our youth. Not to mention I love our music
and would enjoy a nice place to dance to nuestra musica.
Although I am was not born in Humacao, I am the daughter of boricuas born and raised in Humacao - Bo. Mariana.
I look forward to learning more on the specific strategies for improving conditions for our youth and am interested in
being a part of a postive force toward that end.
The Lord willing I will be at your opening on Nov. 4.

Good Day,
I have been away from dancing for way too long and I miss it tremendously!
It is very hard to find clubs that have salsa nights and I wanted to know what
nights are salsa nights at the Club Sunset Lounge? Whenever you can get back
to me with the information that would be wonderful and greatly appreciated; although I have no one to take with me I will
still come and hopefully get to dance the night away with a partner that is! Thank you for your time.
Hi Lillian,
Nice to hear from you.
That is great! Spreading the salsa to downtown Hammond. This new
club, is this one that you have opened? So the dances will no longer take place in Gary? I wish you the best in all your
endeavers. You are working hard to keep the culture strong, and doing a very good job at it.
In looking at the enclosed flyer, is that you dancing in the red dress?
It's been so long that I've seen you, although, I can still remember you and the family vividly as if it were just yesterday.
God bless and take care.
Liz
Hola Mi Gente,
Just a short note to say thank you so much for your
support and patronage!!! The Indiana Salsero's were out in full force. I was in total awe of mi gente I love you
all so much. We are so happy that everyone had a great time. These nights prove how badly we need events of this
nature in our area. We're trying our best to provide you with "Elegant Events With You in Mind." We have
only just begun to bring back the nostalgic moments to NW Indiana and make it real. My applauds to The Radisson
Staff for taking on this great venture. Keep checking the website for updates and soon we will post all the pictures
of the event.
Please send your comments to be published on our website!!!
Yours Truly,
Lillian
