Imagine being tapped to oversee an extreme makeover of a long-standing, cultural institution.  Imagine having one chance to get it right, with no do-overs and extremely high stakes.  Imagine having all eyes in the country’s largest city watching your every move ever so closely.  And imagine having to accomplish all this in record time, with vocal skeptics saying “you can’t get it done.”  This is precisely what was asked of the new Board of Directors for the National Puerto Rican Day Parade when we were tapped to serve and transform the Parade into the iconic celebration of culture, achievement and pride it was originally intended to be.  We have made significant progress during our brief time on the job, and we look forward to hosting a wonderful Parade on June 8. It will be done.  by Louis Maldonado
