It is already the 12th year that former residents of the province of Puerto Plata in the US and Canada gather for a gala dinner in Restaurant 'Villa Barone Manor' in the Bronx in New York.
Among them were many former residents of Sosúa.
The gala opened with the playing of the national anthems of the USA and the Dominican Republic.
After dinner there was plenty of dancing.
Furthermore, there was a raffle from which the proceeds benefit children with disabilities in the province of Puerto Plata.
The JetBlue company donated some airline tickets for the raffle.
