On June 11, CFNC had another opportunity to tour the White House--this time in the East Wing! The tour was made possible by the The White House's Office of Public Engagement and was in honor of African-American Music Appreciation and Caribbean Heritage Month.
Those that attended were in awe of
CFNC Teacher Luz Naranjo in the Blue Room.
the ornately decorated rooms that they were able to see and experience. The East Wing includes many of the rooms that the President and his family use for entertaining, such as the Blue Room, the Green Room, the Red Room and the State Dining Room. The East Wing also includes the South Portico and offers beautiful views of the Jackie Kennedy Rose Garden.
Though they tried, no one was able to catch a glimpse of the President or his family. However, just being within the walls of so much history was thrill enough! CFNC is very grateful for this opportunity.
