Now, Old Spanish Days holds its family-friendly rodeo at the Santa Ynez Valley Equestrian Center, while Earl Warren Showgrounds hosts its own professional rodeo the week prior to Fiesta. But as the official Old Spanish Days organization expands, some of these vendors are feeling left out of the party. For the past six years, the new nonprofit group has used the Fiesta booth to help with operational costs. “Old Spanish Days often speaks about preserving tradition,” said Jennifer Sanchez, director of the Restorative Justice Education Center. Sanchez says the group’s application was denied by Old Spanish Days’ mercado team.
