It is with great pleasure that
the committee would like to invite you to celebrate Mexican Independence Day on
Saturday 17th September, from 6 pm to 12 am in the Redcliffe Hall, in Belmont.
Same place as last year.
The format will be the same as
previous editions:
- The fiesta will be for
members only. You may renew your membership or become a member on the night. Or fill this form and send it to us by email, with a copy of your deposit.
- People will bring a Mexican
dish to share. Bring enough food for you and your family, plus a bit more so
that everyone can have a chance to try many dishes.
- FOMEX will pay for the hall,
non-alcoholic drinks, music and tortillas.
- If possible bring your
children wearing a regional costume to participate in El Grito ceremony.
- You may bring guests to the
fiesta under the following conditions:
- You bring
enough food for you, your family, your guests and a bit more.
- Your guests 12
and older will pay $20 AUD each. This money will go towards paying FOMEX's
expenses.
- Please let Gigi Schettino (eugeniaschettino@gmail.com.au)
know if you are planning to come and what dish you will bring, to avoid too
many repeats.
As usual, we will need help to
decorate the hall, set the tables, help in the kitchen (1 hr shifts), remove
the tables, cleaning and transporting stuff to the hall. If you can volunteer
for one or more of these activities, please let Gigi know.
