Each brotherhood has decided to make the decision on their own about their participation in the May Crosses in the street. “We renounced it,” explained yesterday the older Californian brother, Juan Carlos de la Cerra. “We makos plan to set up a special space on Cuatro Santos street,” said his purple counterpart, Francisco Pagán. Meanwhile, the Risen One plans to address the issue at a meeting of his Board of Directors tomorrow. In Socorro there is not much tradition of participating. The brotherhoods have maintained these festivities for years.
“This year it will be impossible, due to the limitations posed by the bases set by the City Council, which force the activity to cease every day at 1:30 a.m. In addition, on Saturday the 6th, the church of Santa María de Gracia has weddings in the morning and in the afternoon, for which it needs Calle del Aire. That would prevent us from starting before eight in the afternoon and we could lose money, “explained De la Cerra. He regretted that the rules and schedules “have been approved with such little notice” and that “before the government team had not contacted the brotherhoods.” He expressed his wish that, in future editions, they be taken into account to set operating rules that are more favorable to the brotherhoods.
Francisco Pagán plans to “propose to the members of the brotherhood that the assembly of the maypole be kept in the Callejón de Bretau, but that” young people can place bars in front of our new premises on Calle Cuatro Santos. “So, there we can also organize, if anything, a brotherhood dinner,” he explained. The width of the street in that section “allows us to have enough space for all of it,” he said. In addition, there the brotherhood will enjoy more tranquility than in the surroundings of its headquarters, full of bars.
The Brotherhood of Our Father Jesus Risen has scheduled a meeting of the Board of Directors tomorrow, Thursday, whose agenda includes the debate on the May crosses. The white brotherhood had, before the pandemic, its own space on Palas street. It was coinciding with the mandate of Tomás Martínez Pagán as older brother. Now, the proposal to do something similar depends on the new head, Marién García Boj, elected to the position just over two months ago.
