The Much Anticipated Video of Gringos Dancing

There is a myth floating around Honduras that gringos can't dance. Some Catrachos (That is slang for Hondurans) even compare gringos to dead fish when dancing.

My first dance in Honduras - Sam Rioux
While everyone thought I was down here working for OYE for the last year, I have actually been conducting a rigorous undercover investigation into the Gringo dancing myth. Call it anthropology or call it genius this study has brought me to dance halls, discos, carnivals and birthday parties. I have sweat to get to the bottom-the rock bottom-of this myth. Thanks to volunteers Alex Clark-Youngblood and Dylan Cassidy who sacrificed their pride and honor to join me in my quest for the truth, I have undisputable video evidence that Gringos are EXCELLENT dancers!

With no further adieu I present OYE's Greatest Gringo Bailarinos!


Do you reach the same conclusion?
Are we great dancers?

One day left in the Challenge, help keep OYE in FIRST PLACE!


OYE is participating in the YouthActionNet online fundraising challenge through GlobalGiving. In the past few days Team OYE has made a meteoric rise to first place, raising over $5,000 from over 100 people! Thanks to your generous support, we're still in first place. But there is still ONE DAY and 9 hours hours left in the challenge, and the other teams are hot on our heels. Help keep OYE in first by donating online and telling your friends and family to help out as well! Post it to your Facebook page, your Twitter, call your family, anything you can do will help us maintain our position. A donation of as little as $5 will go a long way to help support these amazing young people in El Progreso. The deadline is tomorrow, March 31st, at midnight! Thank you for all your support!
