The Limits

We dream big and we want Lascahobas to be the best destination in Haiti. We do not have money yet to finance our projects but we are trying. Do not stay on the sidewalk to pass jugement or criticise, come plan with us the future ...



A n annual celebration? A get together ? A welcome back party? Le rendez-vous de l’amitié? A reunion? Well…, no matter what anyone calls it, it was quite a memorable evening. All the bright smiles…, the glamour…, the elegance…, the endless parade of hugging and kissing, are testimonies that all were delighted to be there.

 

Everyone contributed to the success of the evening:

THE IDEA: Since ODL’s last event, dated around 3 years ago, there was a lack of social gathering outlets in the Lascahobassian community. The suggestion came, during a committee meeting, that a Social event was way overdue… everyone welcomed the idea and pledged their support. It was decided that this event would be different in structure.

 

THE ORGANIZERS: First, a small group of dedicated people volunteered to search for a place, sending out invitations, placing phone calls… then like a contagious fever, everyone wanted to do something to contribute to the event. It was no longer, a committee preparing an event; it was “Lascahobas en Action”. They did not just help, they were eager to participate.

 

THE ACTION PLAN: Several individuals volunteered to sell tickets. Food items, supplies, and beverages would all be received as donations; as well as seeking sponsorship for the event from the many Lascahobassian entrepreneurs. Invitation letters were sent out followed by phone calls. A venue was reserved for the occasion, a DJ was hired and a devoted team attended to the technical aspect of the occasion.

 

THE PREPARATION: Finally, the big day is here. People came in from several corners of the US; such as: Chicago, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Boston, Florida, Atlanta, New Jersey, Pennsylvania as well as others. From 7PM, volunteers were already there working feverishly to decorate, setup the food service area, the dessert corner... They installed all necessary equipment and hung balloons everywhere!!! As Enrico Macias would say: “Un Soir De Fête, C’est Merveilleux…”

 

THE PARTY: Words alone cannot describe the festive atmosphere in the air. The different presentations, the poems, the foods, the music, and more importantly, the people. The classy touch of Patrick Tertullien who decided to greet every woman with a beautiful necklace…; A Manno Noisette who Crashed into the party with an impromptu hysteria taking us back to areas of Lascahobas yet forgotten. A Fito Gelin so eloquently honoring the beautiful women of Lascahobas. A Vasca Sigue who decided to go all the way by romancing the heart of every lady in the room with a special rose. The public just could not have enough of the evening. At the end, no one wanted to leave… And those who could not make it vowed that they’ll never miss this event in the future.

 

SPECIAL RECOGNITION: This is not an attempt to thank anyone for their hard work, because what was done to make this event possible is beyond thanks. However, our heartfelt appreciation goes to those who performed in the following areas:
