Mexico
Variety of events planned to celebrate Mexico's independence
Though there is a strong Mexican influence, Marrero and Oscar Zepeda, who organized the Festival de Independencia gathering, said it is important to include people from a variety of Hispanic communities at the independence celebrations.
As people in Waukegan and around Lake County prepare to celebrate the independence of Mexico and other Latin American countries, primarily from Spain approximately two centuries ago, this weekend they have a choice of celebratory activities.
