Executive Director's Notes
By Franҫoise Rhodes
I recently had a telephone conversation with a visitor coming for Borrego Days. In our conversation this fellow said "I hope there is a parade, it's the best part."
I replied,"no, the entire two day festival is the best part," and then I went on to explain that after numerous calls to the community for a parade committee, there wasn't a committed group willing to do it once they were given the information regarding County guidelines, etc.
He thought for a minute and then said "You're right and I completely understand, and you know what, we had a great time last year without the parade."
So please.............before you talk-down about the entire festival because of no parade, myself and the board of directors would love a parade, but we need a committed group of volunteers to organize and run it in place by June 1.
.......so think about it for 2024!
Borrego Day Volunteers Needed!
If you are considering being a volunteer please send me an email and our Volunteer Coordinator
Joy McBride will start contacting people on the list in mid September.
