In
2006 Cincy-Cinco set a new record for the World's Largest Piñata!
This proved to be quite a challenge!
With
the assistance and support of Steven Schaefer & Associates, IATSE Local
5 and Home Depot, this piñata will be as tall as a 4 story building.
It is currently being made in a large warehouse and will be transported
a couple of days before the event to Riverbend, where it will be assembled
and hung high to be seen from miles around.
It will be there all weekend long for all to see. We plan to "break"
it on Sunday afternoon at 3pm with prizes and candy for all the children
present at that time. We also will have very special celebrities come
to share this moment. We hope you will be there too to share in a new
stage in the history of the Piñata, a very important Latino tradition
that dates back over 700 years!
