Independence Day: 15th.
Gigantic relay race encompasses the entire Central America isthmus.
Student runners carry the "Freedom Torch" from Guatemala to Costa Rica.
The torch arrives at the colonial capital of Cartago precisely at 6:00
pm on 14th, and everyone, nationwide, sings the National Anthem. Kids
have nocturnal homemade-lantern parades. Uniformed school children
parade the next day.
Uniformed school children parade on September 15th.
