HOLLAND, MI (WHTC-AM/FM, Jul. 16, 2025) – A celebration of the Lakeshore’s Latin heritage that has run for more than six decades returns.
The 61st Fiesta, run by Latin Americans United for Progress, kicks off on Wednesday with two hours of youth activities as part of the biweekly Holland Farmers Market at the 8th Street Marketplace. LAUP Outreach and Engagement Specialist Yailin Ramirez says that the fun starts at 9:30 AM.
