Calendar of Events

Latino Luncheon featuring Grupo Fuego
Grupo Fuego was formed in the fall of 1999. They are very lucky to have a group of musicians that has remained constant over the years and who have given the band its powerful sound. They have come a long way from their humble roots and have grown in popularity as Latin Music has grown more popular. Their fan base covers all ages and ethnic groups due to the energy that the band puts forth in its performances. Come enjoy some great food in the Cardinals Nest and feel free to dance, dance, and dance! If you do not have a meal plan you must pay for your own meal in order to eat in the Cardinals Nest. Flyer.
