State Farm had a considerable presence at the Mexican Independence Day Celebration to show support for the Hispanic culture here in Minnesota.

Our booth seemed to be very successful because many people visited with us and many goodie bags were given away. We also received several phone calls afterward from people who picked up business cards while visiting the State Farm booth. At the booth there was a drawing for soccer balls that proved to be a big hit. People were asked to fill out a form for the drawing and of those who filled out a form, many were interested in receiving information on State Farm products.

The parade was great fun. It was something out of the ordinary to be involved in. We felt that it proved that State Farm and our office definitely want to help the Hispanic culture in all of their insurance and financial needs.

"Wells Fargo takes great pride each year we are invited to participate in this event. That's why it's important to our company and our employees to be present and to make this connection with our community. Many of our employees live and work in the area and spending the day meeting many of our customers at the Mexican Day Celebration is very fulfilling.

We are very excited and look forward in participating again this year.

Viva Mexico!"
