Lou Correa and the O.C. Hispanic Chamber are hosting a Dia de los Reyes event on Jan. 6

State Senator Lou Correa and the Orange County Hispanic Chamber of Commerce are hosting a festive Dia de los Reyes event on Jan. 6, from 4 to 6 pm, at his office, located at 2323 N. Broadway, in Santa Ana.

This is a traditional event in Mexico, and in other Latin American countries, as well as in Europe.  It is a celebration of the Three Wise Men’s visit to baby Jesus.

Correa will take this opportunity to provide a community and legislative update.  And he will provide Rosca de Reyes cake and traditional Mexican hot chocolate.  According to tradition, whoever finds the plastic figurine of baby Jesus in the Rosca de Reyes cake is obligated to throw a party on Dia de la Candelaria (Candlemas Day), which occurs annually on Feb. 2.

This event is sponsored by ING.  You may RSVP by calling 714-558-4400, or sending an email to arthur.sandoval@sen.ca.gov.
