The founder of the Titerroy Neighborhood Association, José Domingo Robayna del Castillo, with the reading of the proclamation, kicked off the Titerroy patron saint festivities in honor of San José Obrero, which will take place until next Sunday, May 2. The mayor of Arrecife, Cándido Reguera, and the councilor of Barrios, Lorenzo Lemaur, as well as other councilors from the government group and the opposition, met last Monday in this neighborhood of Titerroy.
After the reading of the proclamation, the brilliant performance of the Titerroy Folklore Workshop took place. Before, the neighbors were able to enjoy a parade by the murga "Los Titirroys" and, the little ones, the inflatables located in the Plaza Pío XII.
The councilors asked the neighbors to live these parties "with the same illusion and enthusiasm as in the past". According to the councilor of Barrios, Lorenzo Lemaur, the festival program is designed "with the illusion of favoring the meeting, fun, animation, the
entertainment and coexistence not only among the residents of Titerroy, but also from all corners of Arrecife".
