Quinceanera Party at Lake Worth Casino

Comment Up
Sweet 15 Birthday Celebration at the Lake Worth Casino
Saturday Night Quinceanera Honoree

Some Hispanic (Mexican) traditions have a religious origin. One of these is the "sweet fifteen" or "quinceaƱera" celebration, where the honored girl is "officially" presented before society, also making known that she is now available for marriage. The quinceanera is a young Hispanic woman's celebration of her fifteenth birthday. The quinceanera is considered to be the most important birthday as it symbolizes the transition from childhood to womanhood. This event is usually celebrated with an elaborate ritual.

As Hispanics migrate to the United States, these traditions are still prevalent and important and carried forward in many families.

City Manager Michael Bornstein announced at the last commission meeting that our ballroom is booked through March 2014.

The "obtuse"personal attacker person just tried to came back...I featured the above young lady, who is a citizen, NOT AN ILLEGAL, on my blog. I am not against all immigrants or Hispanics, only those who cross our borders illegally.
Now, do you get it or are you too obtuse?

It's too bad we didn't make the entire second floor event space. I think it was presented that way in the very first proposal.

It is so wonderful to see these events in our beautiful casino space. I love to see them on the Casino FB page. I also smile from ear to ear each time I see a special event when I am over at the beach, saw a spiffy wedding party the last time I was there.
