Matsiko's baaaaaaack!

If you missed your chance to see the Matsiko World Orphan Choir when they came to the Monterey Peninsula earlier this year, you're in luck.

The talented youngsters are coming back, and will perform from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Oct. 19 at the Cypress Community Church, 681 Monterey/Salinas Highway 68.

The group of 17 children represent the International Children's Network, an organization that helps orphaned and poor children from several regions of the world. Through the network, families in the U.S. can "adopt" a child and help him/her get an education.

RSVP is required. Admission to the event includes a donation for the children to Matsiko. For more information or to RSVP contact Vanessa Howard, 277-2796 or vanessa@marchowardphoto.com.
