Thanks CALDC
To The Editor:

On behalf of the Dutch Kills community and, I am sure, the entire Astoria/Long Island City community, we wish to thank the Central Astoria Local Development Coalition for a stupendous and outstanding summer concert series. We especially want to thank Marie Torniali, the Board of Directors and the entire staff for the many hours of dedicated hard work for the enjoyment of the community.

The concert series brings the 120 different ethnic groups together in the true spirit of America. Young and old alike enjoyed our beautiful Astoria Park with the magnificent backdrop of Manhattan.

A million thanks again and we hope we have an even better concert series next summer with the continued support of all the long-time sponsors and hopefully new sponsors for 2008. Sincerely, Gerald J. Walsh President, Dutch Kills Civic Association, Inc.
