Dia de los Muertos Festival help!!
Saturday, October 14 2023
We are looking for people to assist at the Dia de los Muertos Festival on October 14th (next Saturday)
1. Gigantes Carriers- 1:45- 3:15pm- we are looking for people to carry our large 15' puppets. They are actually really light for their size and you do not need to be large or super strong. You should be able to carry 30 lbs of weight and walk.
2. Gigantes Guides- 1:45- 3:15- you would just help those in the gigantes maneuver through the procession since it is hard to see in the puppets. You need to be able to talk loudly and communicate clearly. You don't need to carry anything.
I've attached photos of our gigantes and while they are large, more juniors and seniors would be able to carry them. We also have 2 masks and 2 pole carried gigantes that are really easy to carry. If interested , the kids can sign up here- https://www.signupgenius.com/go/20F0B4BAAA729A3F49-2023#
Let me know if you have any questions!
Thanks,
Elaine
