Thrill the World raised 107, 240 pesos in 2018!
This is a world-wide event and has over 52 cities represented. The organizers and dancers work very hard to make sure the event is entertaining and professional. This year the Ajijic Event was managed by Dee Grant and Val Jones with a host of Dance Instructors. These are a representation of the people lakeside who make a difference in the lives of both those us from afar and our local population. The next time you see an ambulance screaming to an emergency, think of and thank these people. If not for them, our lives would be very different at Lakeside. One can only hope that maybe they will bring Chapala into the fold and have one of their final practice sessions on the Chapala Malecon next year. From all of us Lakeside: Many Thanks.
