Celebrating the 4th of July in Santa Fe
Santa Fe has its own traditions when it comes to celebrating the nation’s birthday, as distinct as the “City Different” itself. This year is the 47th Anniversary of the Rotary Club’s Pancakes on the Plaza, For the past 47 years this local tradition has become a day full of fun for the whole family! The smell of delicious pancakes fills the air, while local vendors, classic cars, and unique artwork surround the plaza. If you are in town, you will have the opportunity to be a part of this Santa Fe tradition. The cost of a ticket will not only get you a plate of delicious pancakes, but the proceeds have a positive impact on the community.
Later in the day if you live in or are staying near Eldorado, make your way over to the Community Association’s parade and barbecue- Eldorado style. If you still have no idea what I am talking about, check out our neighborhood page, here.
