The League of Mexican-American
Women sponsors the event to both honor and preserve Mexican history
and heritage and to generate scholarship funds. Fourteen-year-old
girls serve as Botoncitos (Little Rosebuds) who " bloom
'' into Florecitas the following year. The little ladies in waiting
Botoncitos are the attendants at Mass, and stand as honor guards
when the Florecitas present their flowers to the Virgin Mary. |
