The Range of Experience
Heard about the innovation by the Inspirationals? The Room Parties have taken lives of their own, complete with incorporated good times unlimited. O yes, you may need liability insurance against fun, which will cover merriment withdrawal syndrome on Monday morning. Classy Nerds are poised, meaning positioned to displace the Inspirationals by offering vivacious stocks that whet the appetite of the most voracious seeker of laissez les bons temps rouler - let the good times roll.
Party makers, watch out for the two Janes: Mrs Bangang and Mrs Okebugwu of the Bastos Class. Gauging from their sheer ability to generate excitements, they can easily steal the show!
Youth is part of the sum.
Designed for youth is an understatement. If you can afford not to leave your child behind, the convention is family-friendly with differentiated age-oriented engagements, including the Explore Charlotte Excursion. By now, Stephanie and Jasmine can as well lead by virtue of their status as Lesanette Convention Veteran.
History made with bottom-line; not claimed by fanfare.
In February 2012 LESA USA's Branch, LESA DC - The Awesomes, created history in the DC, Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) area by shattering all records at its Golden Jubilee Launching.
In the league of superlatives, 400 plus tickets sold for a one-night event. With the average of $75 per person, the ballroom was full. No event in the DMV can top it, wait for the Awesomes next year. The most table sold and cheers to:
Ekaney and Larry Ekaney
Awesome Larry
Emcee of History-Making.
Picture taken at MsJoe's when she hosted the DC Awesome Christmas event in December 2011; not at the Valentine Gala.
Seeing is believing and facts are key. For the next history-making in the Maryland, DC and Virginia area, save the date: The Awesome Valentine's Day Extravaganza on Saturday February 9, 2013.
Confident of meeting LESA USA's shared responsibility toward the Golden Jubilee Project, a portion of the ticket sales was earmarked for Special Gift to Lourdes. The surprise beautifies.
Encore, Say it Again!
Show or sew your styles. At the center is Sister Bea Mouapi of the "Golden Jubilee Fabric Distribution Center." Do not leave summer 2012 without it and do not wear it before January 5, 2013.
The LEVY is a Pride to Be.
Once more, LESA USA, Inc is rising with due diligent outreach to former students pay the levy of $40 each - it benefits the Golden Milestone.
Mary "Tegies" Tegomoh
(Above) upped the standard of beyond the call of duty. The Levy Leveraged Lady - LLL rocks!
Within a month, LESA USA members doled and Tegies transferred the individual payments to the Steering Committee of the Golden Jubilee. Still counting as more members step up, before we sit down with that smile of accomplishment, Well Done Tegies!
What a 12 month period in LESA USA. Only one set of foot prints signifying a unison of purpose with peace and tranquility that beget more.
