L/ WHY THE GRAND PRIX FOLKLORE FESTIVAL? The Sponsors of the Grand Prix Folklore Festival believe that there should be 6 time -when all of Dade County comes together as one big neighborhood in the common neighborhood of down- town Miami to show case to the world the international patches that are woven into our social and economic quilt of our com- munity. Approximately, Two million people from the various Regions of the world, i.e., the European Region, the North American Region, the South American Region, the Asian Region and Africa/Middle East Region reside in our community, and each year through Calle Ocho, Goombay, and most recently Sunstreet Festival, we get to know some of us better. It is our hope that the Grand Prix will afford all of us the opportunity to get to know all of us a little better.
