Show and Tell






Many activities are going on in the park all year that many do not know about until "Show and Tell" in the Spring. Talent is certainly abundant in Magnolia Park.




I apologize for not getting names to go with the talent. Let me know and I will add it.

The Warblers perform at many functions throughout the year.

Ropa Styleshow 2008

So many events happen in March and it isn't easy to keep up with all of them. The 3rd Annual Ropa Styleshow took place last Sunday and it took till now for me to get this slideshow put together. Ropa Usada means Used Clothing in Spanish and there are several people in the park that frequent the warehouses where these clothing items can be purchased for mere pennies. For instance the wedding dress on the back wall of this slideshow cost $1.34. Enjoy the show!!
