Let us honor the Starr County farm workers who led a strike in the melon fields in the summer of 1966, and then marched 400 miles beginning on July 4th from the Valley to Austin, TX, arriving at the Capitol on Labor Day 1966. 1000 people in San Antonio joined the last 4 miles from St. Edward's University to the Capitol. Please join us to celebrate these heroic farm workers!
