It is time for Chasco Fiesta!!! Get your party on starting March 18th - New Port Richey, Florida
Well it is that time of year again, and with all the cold weather we had this winter, it is just another sign of spring in Florida. Chasco Fiesta is one heckuva good time. If you have never been, and I find that hard to believe, you really need to treat yourself to atleast a few activities over the many days.
Who doesn't love a parade. Apparently everybody loves parades so much they are going to have a street parade as well as a Boat parade. Both are spectacular. But if that does not tickle your fancy, how about Car Show? or the Truck Show? C'mon everybody loves a Bike Show, right? Chasco Fiesta is where everyone you know will be.
Would you maybe prefer something more low key? How about the arts and crafts or the Flea Market? Maybe you would like to watch a Children's Pageant. Do you love gardening? Because the New Port Richey Community Garden is looking for volunteers and visitors. Read their blog HERE to find out more
A good time is guaranteed to all. Or better yet, maybe you can volunteer. We all know how much the economy is hurting, and this could just be the shot in the arm we need. What makes you feel better than social events? I would say Volunteering at Chasco Fiesta. Doesn't cost you anything but time, and it will be a good time. Check out New Port Richey's Chasco Fiesta website Here. It has been happening annually since 1947, so join the fun and if you see me do not hesitate to say hello. I do not bite, but I may nibble a bit :)

Interesting. . I wonder what Chasco means and its origins. . good post!
Fair Question Fernando. From the sites homepage Chasco Fiesta has been around since 1922, annually since 1947. Chasco Fiesta honors a Priest & the Calusa Indian tribe who captured a Spanish boy and girl, after the defeat of a Spanish Expedition. The story goes that the She was later married to him, with her getting the title of Queen Chasco and her consort Pithla. On the side, we also have a river in the area called The Pithlachascotee, but everybody calls it The Cotee.
