Celebrate this traditional and cultural event, recognizing St. John the Baptist.
Dia de San Juan
In 1540 Francisco Vazquez de Coronado, a Spanish conquistador, traversed through Southern Arizona when he, and his colony, encountered a destructive drought. Their fields dried up and their animals began to die. Legend says that, during this time of desperation, he turned to his Catholic beliefs, and prayed to St. John the Baptist near the Santa Cruz River. Shortly after, it began to rain.
