Fiesta San Antonio!!!
April 16, 2010
The community is in the spirit for the two week celebration of Fiesta!
The two week celebration Fiesta San Antonio began this week! St. Mary’s University hosts the Oyster Bake on the opening weekend. Fiesta celebrates the heroes from the battles of the Alamo and San Jacinto and began with a single parade in 1891 and today has grown to one of the largest civic celebrations in the country. There are over 100 official Fiesta events over the course of eleven days. Yet, none match up to the St. Mary’s Oyster Bake.
Bro. Brian created this beautiful Fiesta wreath to great the visitors to Casa Maria over the next few weeks.
More on the Oyster Bake forthcoming…
Happy Fiesta to All!!!!
