Iris's Clique: Color Guard

Iris isn't the only one with a little color up her sleeves. The kids in this group are always brightening up halftime with their multi-colored flags and streamers. They like nothing better than to bring a little color to the lives of those around them. And hey, we're not complaining.

Oshunmare

When some of the African Yoruba tribe was taken to the West Indies, a few of their gods joined them. Aida-Wedo is the West Indian Voodoo version Oshunamare, the rainbow snake, and is thought to help with fertility.
