celebrations

This summer, Fort Bliss and El Paso are inviting all Borderland residents .. military and civilian alike ... to dance, party and mingle just in time for Armed Forces Day.

An annual celebration of Chicano culture and heritage, Cesar Chavez Day, has been canceled following a shooting in El Pao's Lincoln Park

The oldest UTEP tradition happens Friday as new engineering students are welcomed into the Order of St. Patrick and the mountain gets a makeover in El Paso.

Leap Year is kinda like Daylight Saving Time except instead of getting 1 extra hour, we get 24.

This year Mother's Day will be celebrated on May 14th north of the border. Mexico celebrates Mother's Day on a fixed date of May 10th every year.

Hey, wait a minute...
