Always-popular Cinco de Mayo is a zesty fest

RECREATION

The ever-popular Cinco de Mayo party is scheduled for Friday, May 5, with even more reasons to come out and enjoy a Koffel’s Mexican food truck, its famous virgin margaritas plus a variety of Mexican and American food.

This year, Mariachi Zapopan, one of the most popular singing groups of the genre in Southern California, will perform. The band has been performing in the Los Angeles and Orange County areas since 1998.

The dancing and fun will start at 5 p.m. in the Clubhouse 6 parking lot, as well as inside, so save the date.

The first floor of the clubhouse will be closed to normal activities, including table tennis.

This is one of the most popular events of the year and is always filled to capacity, both inside and outside the clubhouse, so only residents are allowed to attend the free festival.

Parking is extremely limited, so a free shuttle from the Clubhouse 4 parking lot will run continuously from 4:30 p.m.

Residents are asked to take advantage of the park and ride service, which is provided by GRF Transportation Department.
