FALLBROOK – Sept. 16 is Mexican Independence Day. This fiesta-friendly holiday celebrates Mexico’s declaration of independence from Spain in 1810.

This year, for the first time, the Fallbrook Senior Center will participate in celebrating Mexican Independence Day. During their regular lunch time, they will have Mariachi musicians and Folklorico dancers for entertainment. The menu will be tamales, beans, rice, and flan for dessert.

All are welcome to join them, Friday, Sept. 16; doors open at 10:30 a.m. and entertainment runs from 10:45 a.m. to noon. Lunch will be served at 11:15 a.m.

Reservations for lunch are required for this day by calling the office at 760-728-4498 by Thursday, Sept. 8.

A suggested contribution of $5 for those 60 and over; for those younger, a cost of $10 per person will be due at the door. For those who wish to enjoy the entertainment and not eat lunch, there will be an area set up to watch and listen to the musicians and dancers.
