AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) – An organization celebrated Cinco de Mayo ahead of Tuesday’s holiday with a festival Saturday on Madeline Drive.
The West Augusta Six Geter Foundation held its Flavor Street Festival Latin Edition, featuring food including empanadas, nachos, fajitas and desserts.
“We decided to do a rendition for our Latin brothers and sisters Latin fiesta to bring in the Cinco de Mayo holiday, that’s very important to them as well as the community,” said Patricia Geter, West Augusta Six Geter Foundation and community activist. “Each month we hold the street fest to acknowledge different types of cuisines, cultures, and we are hoping to have a car show in the fall for our festival.”
