CELEBRATING LIVING TRADITIONS

Food booths, fashion show, vendors, entertainment, health fair, children activities, historical display, career fair and more.

P.L.A.Y. IT FORWARD
On the two nights (May 15-16), a different Press PLAY performed. The show was packed with talents in acting, dancing, singing and comedy. You name it, the show had it all. All you can hear are good comments from the people who watched the show. The two emcees acted as if they were watching videos where each video had a story portrayed in a form of dance. It was brilliant; more so, it was HIP-HOP. But the success of the show would not be possible without the performances of their fellow Family Royale members Boggie Montarz and SuperGalactic Manipulators; guest performers StepBoys, Stevie Nader, David So, Delorean and The Company; the sponsorship of Filipino Fiesta of Sacramento, Pacific Rim Heritage Foundation and Mabuhay Lions; the much needed help from the many volunteers most especially Jennifer Bambao (House Manager), Tania Hui and Mimi Bui (Backstage Managers). Thank you Benvenuti Performing Arts for the auditorium most especially to all the supporters, relatives and friends who watched the show. See you next year.

Billy Hinsche in Sacramento
The Filipino Fiesta 2009 is proud to announce the guest appearance of William (Billy) Hinsche. He was a founding member of the musical group, Dino, Desi & Billy and a longtime member of the Beach Boys. He has been charting songs for the Beach Boys and others for many years, has written songs for Carl Wilson ("One More Night Alone"), Dean Martin ("For the Love of a Woman" and "Come on Down"), and Dino, Desi & Billy ("Tell Someone You Love Them" and "Lady Love", the latter of which was co-written with Brian Wilson). The Caring Program of Utah uses one of Billy's compositions as its corporate theme song ("Let's Build A World"). In 1983, 20th Century Fox and Glen Larsen Productions used one of Billy's songs for their sci-fi television series, Automan, Come one, Come all. Visit his website at:
