We are in the mid-summer, ending July, and the Gaiata 15 celebrates it by entering “el temps de festa” (festival time), starting a new year for the Magdalena Festival 2023. For this reason, we celebrate the traditional event of appointing the posts that will represent Sequiol in this new festive edition.
This Saturday night, at the summer residence of the Collados Marzà family, a family of always sequiolera, whom we thank for the lovely and cool space they gave us to enjoy a good evening.
Thus, the sequiolos, friends, and family filled up this beautiful place. Then we started this event on a beautiful stage prepared by our fantastic team of the Gaiata 15 matadero, which stood out Adriana, Lucía, and Carlos, well lit and accompanied by our emblematic symbol of the panderola. We also count on Claudia Llopis, sister of the madrina, as presenter of the event with Agustín Mon in the technical part of light and sound.
We continued with the tradition once the introduction and a fantastic dance performed by some of our young commission women finished. First, the presence of the 2020 posts was requested, Madrina Lourdes Climent Moreno, Children’s Madrina Alejandra Saez Sisamón, accompanied by the Children’s President Manel Rubio Llambrich. They passed the baton to the 2023 posts, Madrina Adriana Llopis Pascual, Children’s Madrina Lucía Benedito Ordaz, and Children’s President Carlos Benedito Ordaz.
Already with the complete stage, the usual protocol began, first with the presentation of the parchment accrediting the position that Adriana, Lucía, and Carlos will play for the Magdalena 2023 and the imposition of the silver badges.
Then, as a keepsake and in gratitude for all this time that Lourdes, Alejandra, and Manel, have dedicated and represented the Sequiol as posts, our President of the Gaiata, Elisabeth Breva, gave them a miniature replica of the banner. The parents of the 2020 and 2023 posts also received a floral arrangement in gratitude for their dedicated time and will dedicate to us.
As required by the statutes of our association, we proceeded to the imposition of colored badges for new members of the children’s and adult commissions and silver for those who have been in the commission for three consecutive years or five alternating years.
At the end of the event, our President of the Gaiata, Elisabeth Breva, took the stage to dedicate a few words to our posts. She welcomed and congratulated the 2023 posts and gave a friendly farewell to those of 2020, encouraging them to continue doing an excellent job so that the Gaiata 15 Sequiol continues to be the best Gaiata of Castellón.
The end of the event led to a dinner of snacks and good music, ending with our President taking a dip in the pool.
The panderola is on the move again. This time, it is led by Adriana, Lucía, and Carlos, to whom we wish them a wonderful year full of new and unforgettable experiences.
