(l-r) Ashley Stubblefield, 14, and Eden Levin, 15, both Canyon Charter School alumni, carry cakes in the “Cake Walk” during Canyon Charter School’s 114th Annual Fiesta on Sunday, April 27. Lucky the cakes didn’t melt in the sweltering heat. Canyon celebrates Fiesta in honor of the Marquez Family, who owned the land where the school stands. Fiesta is a long tradition that brings together the school and the local community. photo by FabianLewkowicz.com
