Dia de los Niños
Pescadero’s annual children’s literacy festival returns to Puente on April 27th from 6 to 8 p.m. We invite families to come and play, receive books and school supplies and share a meal, all to remind our children how important they are to us and plant a seed about the delights of reading.
