Sofía Medeles . – This year, the residents of Francisco Villa Street have the permission of the delegation to carry out their traditional camping on the shore of the lake during Easter Week, from Thursday, April 14 to Sunday, April 17.
Acting Ajijic delegate Maximiano Macías Arceo said campers came to ask for permission, which was granted, although with some restrictions. For example, tents and tarps can be put up at the end of Francisco Villa Street and the beach of La Crucita.
In addition, the hours for listening to music will be limited. Although he did not mention an exact time, he said he does not want any problems with the neighbors who live near those beaches.
“It is not just for campers, but also any private home or business where they are exceeding the limit of both sound and hours,” Macías Arceo said. “If they do exceed the limits, public security will visit them to maintain order.”
Another topic he mentioned was the garbage generated. He asked for the cooperation of campers to keep the beaches as clean as possible. He said campers must remove their tents or palm leaf huts when their visit is over.
“On Easter Monday, April 18, they should no longer be there,” Macías Arceo said. “We trust they will be responsible and follow the restrictions.»
The tradition of camping on the shores of the lake during Holy Week began in 1992. Families go to the beach, set up their tents and stay on Holy Days – Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday – to spend time with their neighbors.
