On behalf of the Belize Educational Fund and Day in the Park Committee, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to everyone who supported Belize Day in the Park event on Sunday, August 7th, 2011. Without your continued support, Belize Day in the Park 2011 would not have been possible.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the vendors, entertainers and our fellow Belizeans who traveled far and wide to be a part of our event. Your attendance helped to make the day a success. I would like to give special thanks to Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Governor Pat Quinn for acknowledging Belize Day by proclaiming Sunday, August 7th Belize Day in the City of Chicago and the State of Illinois.
I would also like to extend a special thank you to Secretary of State, Jesse White and our Honorable Consul, Debbie Schell for their support and presence at this year’s event. Last but not least, I would like to thank Ms. Pam Dorr and the staff of Hawthorne Race Course for once again welcoming our event and the Belizean Community to their venue.
We worked hard to make this year’s event a success. Unfortunately, the weather significantly affected the entertainment segment of the festival and many great performers did not have an opportunity to showcase their performance. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may have caused.
As we move forward, we hope that you will continue to support Belize Day in the Park and I assure you that we will work harder to make Belize Day in the Park 2012 a huge success. Please feel free to send us your comments and suggestions on how we can continue to improve the Belize Day in the Park Festival.
We appreciate your continued support and look forward to seeing you next year.
Sincerely,
Phyllis V. Hughes
President, Belize Educational Fund and Day in the Park Committee

"Farid,
Job well done on Sunday by the group, had a great time. The convenience of parking and security provided the comfort required was a repeated comment I heard. I'm sure improvements will be made for next year so get to working. :)
