It was the annual Cinco de Mayo Celebration, returning to downtown Dayton inside the Top of the Market this year after rain plagued an outdoor event in Miamisburg last year.
“This is just the beginning of the party,” Julio Gonzalez, president of Puerto Rican and Caribbean Organization (PACO), which organizes the event, told the crowd as Latin band Conjunto Jibaro finished playing. “Fiesta time begins now.”
“This is our heart. This is our culture,” said Elizabeth Jimenez-Pages, who also works for the all-volunteer PACO. “We want to share it.”"*
