At Friday's meeting, Olga Ortiz of Hispanic Connections shared all the great happenings this Sunday (Sept 14) for the Mexican Independence Day Celebration. The celebration runs from 11:00 am to 7:00 pm and featuers a horse parade that had over 100 horses last year (they are limiting the number of horses this year - 100 horses are a lot to clean up after,) food trucks (30 different trucks - more than the Food Truck Fest. Per Olga, if you like tacos - and who doesn't - there will be plenty of choices,) music, cultural showcases and much more.
Last year, the event had 8,000 attendees and is the largest event on the Square - and per Joe Fiala, the best one.
