Cinco de Mayo

La Fiesta más caliente de Minnesota
Minnesota’s Spiciest Celebration

Volunteer with the Minnesota DFL Party at Cinco de Mayo on Saturday!


There are two ways you can help:

• Volunteer to staff the Minnesota DFL’s booth and help us register new voters! The DFL booth will be located east of Robert Street and west of State Street on Cesar Chavez. Shifts are in 2-hour increments from 8:00 am to 7:00 pm on Saturday May 3rd (these times include constructing and taking down the tent and booth). Please email communities@dfl.org if you would like to volunteer at the DFL booth.

• Join Representative Betty McCollum and other elected officials for the annual Cinco de Mayo Parade on Saturday, May 3rd in District del Sol in St. Paul! We will be gathering at the DFL Headquarters (map), 255 Plato Blvd East, St. Paul at 9:00am, and walking to the parade staging location (corner of Plato and Wabasha) at 9:30am. The parade will begin promptly at 10:00am. The parade route is along Wabasha St. and Caesar Chavez St. and will end at Anita St. The route usually takes about 45 minutes to walk.

If you would like to volunteer, or would like more information, please contact CD4 Field Director, Mackenzie Taylor, at mtaylor@dfl.org.
