Orlando Gutierrez credits summer sports events for energizing the city’s Colombian presence, while Gustavo Restrepo reveals last year’s pause was due to external climate pressures — now resolved with a triumphant return for Independence Day. The mission remains unchanged: to share Colombia’s soul with all Kansans, keeping traditions alive through music, food, and stories. For locals like David Campuzano, it’s more than celebration — it’s a lifeline to heritage, family, and identity.
