[Wadabo_updates] Thank You! From Ndaje Festival 2007

Greetings!
 
I would like to take this time to thank everyone for coming this past weekend to Boston for the Ndaje Festival 2007! This was truly a special event because people came together in pure ndaje spirit from as far as Canada, Missouri, Chicago, Ohio, DC, Pennsylvania and California! There was also a huge amount of support from NYC, New Hampshire, Vermont, Connecticut, and of course the local Boston community! It was a beautiful, peaceful and exciting three days, and it warms my heart to hear that everybody enjoyed themselves! Thank you to the teachers, performers, Dionne Thomas, Darian Parker, Lamine Diallo, Deborah at the Y, and everyone who helped me make the 1st Annual Ndaje Festival a big success! I will see you all in Boston again next year! Insha Allah.
 
Jerefef!
