Evendale, OH – September 28, 2024 – The Latino community came together in vibrant celebration at the 3rd Hispanic Heritage Festival, hosted by the Princeton City School District (PCSD). The event, directed by the dedicated Ana Martinez, PCSD Family Coordinator, was a resounding success, drawing attendees from all its neighboring community.

The festival was a testament to the rich cultural tapestry of the Latino community, featuring an array of Latin food trucks, music, and dances from countries such as Mexico, Ecuador, and Panama. The atmosphere was electric, with the community enthusiastically participating in a Zumba class that proved especially popular among teenagers and women.

Children enjoyed craft tables and various activities, ensuring fun for the entire family. Local organizations, including health providers, realtors, and universities, were on hand to share valuable information about their services. Companies offered food samples and snacks, while the LULAC Ohio Educational Foundation (LOEF) provided crucial scholarship information.
