In celebration of the 236th anniversary of American Independence, United States Ambassador to Tanzania Alfonso E. Lenhardt hosted a reception at his residence on June 27 in Dar es Salaam. The theme for this year's celebration centered around youth leaders as the future of Tanzania. The youth were represented by primary and middle school student winners of an essay contest - around the theme of "what democracy means to me," and an art contest - with the theme of "the leader I most admire." The evening also included performances by a U.S. Navy Band, the Kijitonyama Lutheran Youth Choir, and concluded with a spectacular fireworks display.
