¡HICA!’s Inaugural Pig Roast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 

Hundreds of Latinos will come together on Saturday, September 11th, for ¡HICA!’s Inaugural Pig Roast, an event presented by Alabama Power. This inaugural event has been organized by ¡HICA!’s Jr Board to bring Latinos and all communities together in Alabama through a Latin Tradition of roasting an entire pig, in a fun and family-friendly environment.

This is the first event organized by the Jr Board:

“We wanted to bring a unique Latino experience to our community all the while supporting ¡HICA!’s mission. There’s no better way to do this than to bring people together with food, fun, and beer,” said ¡HICA!’s Jr Board President Dulce Rivera. “We plan on making this an annual event and tradition that will supersede us and continue to bring awareness to our Latino community.”

The ¡HICA!’s Inaugural Pig Roast will be held at the Cahaba Brewing Company, which is brewing a special beer just for this event, the Lagerveza. All sales proceeds of Lagerveza will support ¡HICA!’s mission and programs.

In addition to roasting a pig and having a specially crafted beer, there will be activities for people of all ages and live entertainment.
