A fun day of FREE events waited for those who attended the ¡Vive tu Vida! Get Up! Get Moving!™ annual celebration in Los Angeles, California on Saturday, June 2, 2007, in Belvedere Community Regional Park. Participants were able to choose from great offerings including sports clinics, kids play areas, dance lessons for all ages, and prize drawings. Free health screenings were also available. Participants also had the opportunity to enjoy a performance by the "Maria Fatal" band. A highlight of the event was the appearance of the popular children’s characters Los Solecitos from Univision. The day was full of activities and attractions and even a massage tent for relaxation after an action packed day!
