On May 29, the Hamilton Intercultural Awareness Committee (ICAC) hosted the second annual Cinco de Mayo talent show for local TYC staff, students, and volunteers. J.J. Ramirez, director of Save Our Streets Ministries (S.O.S.) in Bryan, was guest speaker for the festive event. S.O.S. is an outreach group that ministers to young people who are in need of spiritual guidance. Mr. Ramirez, who grew up "on the streets", used his past involvement with gangs and drugs to enlighten and encourage audience members in developing their own positive vision for the future.

Hamilton students presented talents that included various singing acts and special readings and poems about the Cinco de Mayo holiday. After the cultural program concluded, the Hamilton ICAC treated all students that attended and participated in the event to nachos and drinks.
