"This is the largest Puerto Rican Cultural Festival in California with the best salsa and reggaeton musical talent direct from Puerto Rico and the bay area!"
-- Johnny Saldivia--  

Since 1972, the Council has promoted cultural, educational and socio-economic programs that enhance the status of Puerto Ricans in the western region of the United States. The Council is an umbrella organization with its primary base in the San Francisco Bay Area, California.

As part of the Council goal to promote the culture of Puerto Rico, “El Día de San Juan” Festival (the "Festival") was started in 1978 in the Bay Area and remains part of the area's signature events today

Father's Day - A day to honor our father. -
"One night a father overheard his son pray: Dear God, Make me the kind of man my Daddy is. Later that night, the Father prayed, Dear God, Make me the kind of man my son wants me to be." -- Author Unknown.

This is the time of the year to appreciate and celebrate the Father's in our lives. Father's are hero's, mentors, our rock of Gibraltar. Father's stand in the back ground and allow us to take small risks so we can grow to be strong. They show us their strength by doing the right thing and holding their ground. They make parental sacrifices to show us we are loved. Take this time to show your dad or father figure how much he is loved. The WRPRC would like to extend a Happy Father's Day wish to all dad's.
