The Pregonera of the Antigua Festivities 2025 will be Pepa Hernández Jordán
– Mayor and councilman propose Pepa Hernandez to be the town’s town crier for the Fiestas in honor of Our Lady of La Antigua.
– Courageous woman, participant in Antigua’s festivities from a very young age, promoter of associations, rondallas and workshops, Pepa Hernandez, is a pregonera of luxury, with much to tell and nothing to keep quiet, says the mayor, Matias Peña.
The Mayor, Matías Peña and the Councilor for Festivities, Pedro Armas, visited the home of Pepa Hernández Jordán this Wednesday morning, May 14, to formally propose her the task of being the Pregonera of the Antigua Festivities 2025.
Courageous woman, participant in the Fiestas of Antigua since very young, impulse of associations, rondallas and workshops, you Pepa, are a luxury pregonera for the Fiestas of Antigua, the mayor pointed out to her at home, who added, you have much to tell and nothing to keep quiet.
I have consulted with the rondalla El Campillo their proposal and all components have encouraged me to respond that if this order, Pepa Hernandez replied, it will be a pleasure but also a responsibility, because I would like to remember the cold nights in the houses, the times of effort, large families, of generosity and ration cards, limitations that forced to help each other neighbors, to educate in respect, to contribute, to be there for whatever was needed, preparing crops, raising stones, restoring walls and houses, carrying and bringing buckets of water or goat’s milk, and endless tasks. I would also like to remember so many who are no longer here and who contributed so much and meant so much, adds the Pregonera.
Since the mayor proposed Pepa Hernandez Jordan as the Pregonera of the Fiestas de Antigua 2025, the idea was well received by the Festivities Commission, says the councilman, Pedro Armas, for always working and pulling the cart, and for always leaving more than what is carried.
