I would love to attend, the short notice via email prevent me from attending, is their website calendar for up coming events?
Rose,
When I first started this website, I included a calendar of various Garifuna events across the United States and Central America.
Maintaining the calendar turned out to be a big headache and ultimately more trouble than it was worth.
If there is more demand for a Garifuna calendar, I will consider including it on this website.
