The objective of this initiative is to provide citizens with provincial emblems and promote pride of belonging to the province. This year, the distribution has particularly focused on the Los Vélez region, which is hosting the event, and the capital.
The president of the Provincial Council, José Antonio García Alcaina, was in charge of handing out the first flags this morning at the Provincial Palace. García Alcaina emphasized that the campaign aims to "promote pride of belonging to the best province in the world", bring this sentiment to Los Vélez, and highlight this region, which is the furthest from the capital and is this year's host.
To facilitate collection, the Provincial Council has set up various points throughout this week, starting at 09:30 AM: in Vélez Blanco (Wednesday 11, Market), Almería (Friday 13, Provincial Palace), Chirivel (Friday 13, Market), Vélez Rubio (Saturday 14, Market), and María (Sunday 15, Market).
The distribution will continue over the weekend in Vélez Rubio and María, concluding on Provincial Day itself.
