THE CITY OF SANTA FE SAYS THEY’LL NOW HOLD A CELEBRATION OF FAITH INSTEAD OF THE ENTRADA, WHICH IS TEMPORARILY ON HOLD. THAT DECISION WAS MADE THIS WEEK AFTER WHAT’S BEING CALLED A HISTORIC MEETING ON THE MATTER. THE SANTA FE NEW MEXICAN REPORTS THE MEETING WEDNESDAY WAS ATTENDED BY THE ALL PUEBLO COUNCIL OR GOVERNORS, THE SANTA FE FIESTA COUNCIL, CABALLEROS TO VARGAS, THE ARCHDIOCESE OF SANTA FE AND THE MAYOR OF SANTA FE, ALAN WEBBER.
BUT A GROUP THAT ORGANIZED A “PEOPLE’S ENTRADA” DOESN’T LIKE THE CHANGE. THE “PEOPLE’S ENTRADA” IS MEANT TO SUPPORT LOCAL LATIN TRADITIONS AND TO PROTEST THE TEMPORARILY HOLD ON THE ENTRADA. THE GROUP PUSHING THE PEOPLE’S ENTRADA PLANNED TO HOLD IT’S OWN EVENT, WITH OR WITHOUT A CITY PERMIT.
