The Councilor for Sports, Luis Becerra, reports that the one on December 4 will be the last to be held of all those that are part of the Open Water Series and emphasizes that it is possible to celebrate this swimming trip in the middle of winter due to the excellent climatic conditions of the municipality. . “It is a luxury to be able to bring together 500 athletes in the month of December with an average temperature of 24º degrees and, in all probability, a clear sky and calm waters. Without a doubt, this makes us a unique and very attractive destination for practicing sports,” he points out.
Likewise, he assures that the Department he leads has taken cruising speed with regard to the organization of events. “Hand in hand with clubs or directly promoted by the City Council, since it has been possible for us after the pandemic we have started moving and an example of this is that from October to the end of the year we will have held eight sporting events,” indicates the mayor.
