| Amigos de los Niños de Mexico Prepare for 18th Annual Fiesta Amigos de los Niños de Mexico is a non-profit organization with a single purpose. Every Christmas Day since 1990, this group of over 300 Winter Texans has provided a holiday fiesta for about 3000 Mexican children. The fiesta is held in Nuevo Progreso, Mexico on Christmas morning. The children come from many different pueblos and colonias in Northern Tamaulipas. Following a parade from the International Bridge to Ford School #45, the children enjoy gifts of Toys, Piñatas, fruits, foods, and a visit with Santa Claus. All Winter Texans who would like to be part of this exciting event, in our 18th consecutive year, are invited to the planning meeting at 2 PM on Wednesday November 12. Meeting will be held at the Catholic War Veterans building in Weslaco. It is located on FM 1015, ½ mile north of Expressway 83.
