WHEREAS, locally, this celebration began in the early 1920's with the first Azorean immigrants to this area, followed by the 1923 incorporation of the Dos Palos Portuguese D.E.S. Association, making it one of our city's oldest organizations, and today these traditions are carried on by the descendants of those first immigrants as well as by more recent arrivals from the Azores, Brazil, Canada, Angola, and Portugal; and
WHERAS, the D.E.S. is a non-profit organization funded by donations collected from many businesses, dairies, farms, ranches, and residents of various backgrounds and faiths, to conduct its annual celebrations, award scholarships, maintain a community hall, park, and playground, and to provide one-time assistance to those in immediate need; and WHEREAS, the Dos Palos D.E.S. will conduct its annual Bodo de Leite, a parade of ox-carts, a distribution of sweetbread, cheese, and milk, followed by a free barbeque lunch, and also servings "sopas" a traditional meal of bread, cabbage, beef stew, and mint, to more than 2,000 people and delivers hundreds of meals to local families who have experienced recent death, injury, or major illness; NOW THEREFORE,
