Cinco de Mayo, 2015
Hey amigos y amigas, it's time to party. On this
occasion, celebrate Mexican cuisine, music, and
culture. You need an afternoon of food, festivities,
and friends. Si?
So grab your sombrero and maracas, and join us for a Latin celebration on Sunday May 3, 2015.
The party is on from 1 to 7 pm, with food served at 1:30 pm, at Jerry's place.
This will be a potluck. Bring an item to share: main dish, salad, side dish, drinks, or fruit. Think guacamole, tomatoes, tomatillos, jicama, chilies, and limes, as well as tacos.
Also bring USA July 4 party decorations. There will be a contest for best decoration, with awards granted for first, second, and third place.
Jerry's place is at: Edgewater Shores, Unit 50, 180 S State Highway 173, Lake Arrowhead CA. A map with travel directions is below. The condos are half way between Cedar Glen and Lake Arrowhead Village, on Hwy 173. The house phone at Jerry's is: 909-336-5942.
Look for a gated entrance. The gate will be closed, but Jerry is around to open it. A cell phone might shorten the delay at the gate. Street parking is available.

Cinco de Mayo is a celebration of the battle
of the Puebla. On May 5, 1862, Mexican
soldiers prevailed against Napoleon's
French forces, even though the French were
better equipped, had twice the numbers,
and hadn't been defeated in 50 years. The
battle was a turning point of spirit, giving
Mexicans a much needed taste of victory.
Since that time, (and with some involvement
by the U.S.,) no country in the Americas has
been invaded by any other European force.
