Because the descendants of the original Mexicans have been Americans for several generations, many of the fiestas, especially the nonreligious ones, are a mixture of Mexican and American cultures. They may attract participants from across the whole community. The religious fiestas are generally held by the congregation of the local church but in smaller communities may involve most of the citizens. Most fiestas offer traditional Mexican food, Mexican music and dance, and may include traditional sporting events such as a '' Charrería '', or rodeo. The participants may dress in traditional Mexican dress, especially if the event is a community wide event. FIESTAS Fiestas Patrias'' (Mexican holidays)
