Luciana Gomes, the chair of the Latino Heritage Celebration Committee, said this year’s celebration will reach out into the community more than it has since its start in 1995. Members of the LASO are going to visit Charleston grade schools to help educate students about Latino culture. This is a great way for young children to become aware of other cultures they may not be exposed to every day. This would give Charleston children a chance to be more culturally educated and aware. This is a step in the right direction for getting the community involved with activities at Eastern. The Charleston Recreation Department is sponsoring a Latin Fest at Morton Park on Oct. 4, which will feature a day of fun and games for all ages. Since there isn’t a big population of Latinos in Charleston, this is a way for people to become more culturally aware and get to know other members of a particular culture. Eastern as a whole is trying to get involved with the different cultural organizations on campus.
