Cuban Heritage Day 2017 Promises to Be Awesome

May 4, 2017 By Marta Darby 1 Comment

It’s happening again, mi gente. Cuban Heritage Day at Dodger Stadium is officially on the Dodger calendar for Sunday, August 27th, 2017. 

I’m so proud and delighted that once again I get to be a part of the Cuban Heritage Day Committee. (#winning)

  1. Because these are the best, hardest working, most fun people I’ve ever worked with. 
  2. Because we have our meetings at Porto’s Bakery. (#winning)
  3. Because our t-shirt designer is Habana Brand Clothing. (#winning)
  4. Because they love my grandson, Bash as much as I do.

See how much winning we’ve got going on already? 

At our last meeting (held at Porto’s Bakery in Buena Park, which is in my area code, but that’s not important right now) we discussed lots of fun things and made some great plans for the day which I’ll be sharing with you very soon. 

I know not all of you are in Southern California, but I hope this gives those of you making travel plans enough of a head’s up. Also, for those of you out of state who want to show your Cubanity and represent…have I got a great offer for you!

From the geniuses over at Habana Brand Clothing:

We are excited to present The 2017 Cuban Heritage Day Collectors T-shirt. Only a limited number of shirts will be printed.

Pre-order your shirt now for $20.00 to be shipped in June. June prices will increase to $25.00 while supplies last. All our items are designed and printed in the USA!

Wear it proudly when you join the Dodgers for a cultural celebration for the 5th annual Cuban Heritage Day at Dodger Stadium on Sunday, August 27th.

The Cuban-themed Viva Los Dodgers festival will begin 2 hours prior to first pitch and fans can enjoy festive live music, player autographs, and various activities. Admission to Viva Los Dodgers is free with a paid ticket to the game.

The women’s t-shirt has a flattering scoop neck.

We offer free exchanges for any shirts that don’t work out.

We always offer free shipping on all U.S. orders and cheap shipping everywhere else.

Cuban-Heritage-Day-Habana-Brand-Clothing

One of the happiest moments for me is when we arrive at Dodger Stadium on Cuban Heritage Day and when I behold that sea of Cubans all dressed alike, cheering and representing. I swear it brings a tear to my eye. It just doesn’t get any better than this. 

So here are your tasks for today:

  1. Save the Date! Sunday, August 27th, 2017 to meet up at Dodger Stadium.
  2. Pre-order your Cuban Heritage Day t-shirt for only $20 from Habana Brand Clothing.

I can’t wait to share in all this fabulous Cubanity. Go Dodgers! (#winning)

    I would love to be put on a mailing list or whatever so that I will know when this event will occur in 2018. I’ve never heard of this before and I would have loved to have attended this year! Now that I’ve been turned onto your blog I’m guessing I’ll be reading about it here next year.

    Best regards,
    Aida
