The Day of the Pe単as The Day of the Pe単as is celebrated on the first days of June in Boiro. Different groups or teams are formed and all kinds of people can participate in the activities: adults, teenagers and children.
In the morning, the teams play typical games, such as sack races or tug-ofwars. At the end of the morning, the team with the greatest number of victories becomes the winner and sometimes the mayor of Boiro gives them a prize.
Another thing which is typical of this day is that each team makes its own T-shirts with a slogan or funny sentence printed on the front. Although the T-shirts change every year, the teams remain the same.
This day is a great excuse for teenagers to get home late because there are a lot of parties at night and parents are quite permissive about it.
