Two educational institutions from the city took part in it: School No. 59 Los Naranjos de la Concordia and School No. 17 Diógenes de Urquiza. Furthermore, and as is customary since this program began to be implemented, the band of the 6th Tank Cavalry Regiment “Blandengues” accompanied the event.
A new edition of the municipal program implemented by Mayor Enrique Cresto, Concordia Late la Patria, took place in the city's Plaza 25 de Mayo.
On that occasion, and together with the residents of Concordia who approached the city's central square, the Los Naranjos and Diógenes de Urquiza schools accompanied the activity; at the same time, it was led by the band of the 6th Tank Cavalry Regiment “Blandengues”.
The Secretary of the Mayor's Office, Matias Soto, one of those present, stated that “another edition of this program promoted by Mayor Enrique Cresto is being held, within the framework of the 40 years of democracy we are experiencing in our country. The active participation of school institutions, we must also thank the 6th Cavalry Regiment that was present. I believe it is an unforgettable experience for the children, which not only seeks to raise awareness regarding the approach to the instruments of democracy, celebrating it, but also with the action of getting to know the Municipal Palace and what activities it provides to the community,” he indicated.
In that sense, Adriana Guiffrey (3rd-grade teacher at Los Naranjos school) expressed herself very moved to participate in the program and revealed that “the children were very anxious to attend.” Likewise, the teacher added: “For them, living this is unique and very important at this moment. The fascination of seeing the band perform was also reflected. Of course, I thank the organization for the invitation and the Municipality as well. Excellent program,” she outlined.
Finally, the relatives of Fernando Mendoza were present at the heartfelt tribute paid to the former Navy Lieutenant and Corvette Captain. Thus, Raquel Colombani (Fernando's mother) commented that “this act moved me a lot because it is remembering Fernando, and even more so when listening to the band. It was a tribute that touched my soul,” she determined.
