A Fiesta was held in the Fellowship Hall of the Tinker Chapel Sept. 23 as a kickoff event for Hispanic American Heritage Month, which is observed Sept. 15 to Oct. 15. Attendees were encouraged to dress in traditional attire from their countries for a costume contest. Several Hispanic countries were represented, including Mexico, Venezuela, Columbia, Peru and Panama with representatives offering traditional sweet and savory dishes as well as their crafts and handiwork. A dance instructor was also available for teaching traditional dances such as the merengue, the national dance of the Dominican Republic. The next event will be the Tarahumara Run on Oct. 15 at 3 p.m. at the Tinker Track. (U.S. Air Force photo/Kelly White)
