Our speaker at the January meeting was Juan Salvadores, a native of Spain and resident of the Canary Island of La Palma. Juan is currently in Louisiana teaching Spanish at Scotlandville Magnet High School. He spoke to us about the people, culture, and history of the island of La Palma. Some of our Canarios ancestors who came to Louisiana in 1778 were from this beautiful island.
