It’s that time of year, in which we, Brownsvillians, are elated to partake in a bi-national, bi-cultural celebration with our Matamorense “hermanas y hermanos”. 81 years of parades, art, music, culture, food, and memories that span across three generations.
Our very own BISD Children’s Charro Days Parade will take place on Thursday, February 22nd at 2:30pm – 6:00pm on 455 E Elizabeth St.
