November 4, 2012 (El Cajon) – “Doesn't the "spirit" of those kids/young adults shine thru in the photo beautifully?” says Rebecca J. Williamson, who captured the moment at last month’s 3rd annual Chaldean Festival at Prescott Promenade in El Cajon.

The annual event, sponsored by the Saint George Chaldean Association, draws thousands of attendees enjoying live entertainment, booths, food and dancing. El Cajon is home to the nation’s second largest population of Chaldeans, Iraqi Christians descended from the ancient Babylonians of Mesopotamia.
