Belizeans to put on show at Miami mall

While Belizeans at home prepare to party at the Barracks, those living in Miami will be doing their thing at the mall. “A touch of Belize 2000″…a first ever exposition promoting the country, will be held on September 16th at the upscale Aventura Mall. Headed by Teddy Gonzalez, the event is designed to promote tourism and besides pretty pictures will feature Belizean entertainment including a dance group from Dangriga organized by Phyllis Cayetano, the Benque Viejo Marimba headed by Emilio Castellanos and performing artist Jimmy Lee from New York. The Aventura Mall is one of the most popular in South Florida, hosting approximately 20,000 shoppers each day.
