Fiesta de los Reyes May Add $5 Entry Fee

Fiesta De Los Reyes, traditionally free to attend, could charge a $5 entry fee this year as organizers cite rising security costs following recent shootings. The Rey Feo Consejo Educational Foundation says last year's enhanced security helped the event run smoothly but left the group in the red, impacting scholarship fundraising. A local market association plans to oppose the fee, arguing it could deter families and hurt nearby small businesses. City Council is expected to take up the proposal next week.
