🇵🇷 Boricuas, we want to hear from you!

❓ What’s a Puerto Rico memory that instantly takes you back? / ¿Cuál es ese recuerdo de Puerto Rico que con solo pensarlo te lleva de vuelta a la Isla?

Maybe it was:
🥭 Throwing rocks at the quenepa tree and hoping you had good aim.
🌊 The smell of alcapurrias, bacalaítos, and pinchos at the beach.
🁢 That never-ending family domino tournament where everyone swore they were winning.
🎶 Waking up to salsa blasting from someone’s radio o bailando con la familia
🚗 Road trips through the mountains with the windows down.

No matter how big or small, those memories connect us to our roots and remind us of the people, places, and traditions that make our culture so special.

👇 Share your favorite Puerto Rico memory in the comments and let’s take a trip down memory lane together.

What is a Bohíque? 🇵🇷

A Bohíque was a healer, teacher, and spiritual guide within Taíno society.

Our Bohíque Sponsors help uplift and strengthen the community through education, wellness, empowerment, and support.

Their sponsorship helps BoricuaFest become more than a celebration — it becomes a space for connection, learning, and cultural pride.

En este Día de los Caídos, recordamos a nuestros héroes con gratitud y respeto. Que nunca olvidemos el precio de la libertad ni a las familias que llevan esa ausencia en su corazón.

Today we honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Their courage, service, and legacy will never be forgotten. 🇺🇸

From all of us at Boricuas Unidos de Elgin, thank you to those who served and gave everything for future generations.
Hoy y siempre, los recordamos. ❤️🤍💙
