2007 Fiesta Guide
Even though August marks the final countdown of summer vacation, at least the month kicks off with a blastFiesta, that is. To help guide you through the miasma of the long weekend celebration, we have put together our annual Fiesta issue. In addition to event listings, we’ve included a timeline and history of Old Spanish Days; Pablo de la Guerra’s groundbreaking 1855 speech calling for the rights of native Californios; facts about the largest horse parade in the country; and a story about flamenco music’s roots.
