San Ignacio Fiesta brightens weekend

Someone in a gorilla suit walked the parade route Saturday in Ignacio.

San Ignacio Fiesta celebrated a theme of “Get in Gear Celebrating 115 Years” for 2015, so there were numerous floats in Saturday’s parade decorated with gears and cogs.

This year’s Fiesta queen is Christyanne Valdez. Lainey Espinoza is the first attendant, and Reyna Cruz is second attendant.
