Gala de Oro Celebrates Latino Culture

The Riverhouse on the Deschutes will be the site of a dance, silent auction and raffle this week, benefiting the Latino Community Association. The Gala de Oro starts at 5 pm Saturday with margaritas, beer and wine, followed by dinner that includes Lomo saltado (thin, marinated beef), Veracruz-style fish and chile rellenos, and then a dance featuring the band Conjunto Alegre—a 12-piece band from Portland."
