Honoring History: Franconis Pays Tribute to L’Escalade Tradition! ๐ฐ๐ซ
Salut, Franconis Admirers! ๐
As the eve of L’Escalade unfurls its historical tapestry, our Franconis boys took a sweet journey through time to pay homage to the brave defenders of Geneva. In the early morning hours of December 12, 1602, the city stood resilient against the Savoyan invaders, a testament to the indomitable spirit of its people.
Continuing the cherished tradition, our Franconis family gathered to express their respect and gratitude. In a symbolic act, the youngest member, Aloรญsio, and the seasoned stalwart, Navi, took centre stage. Together, they smashed a chocolate cauldron brimming with candies, a gesture that echoes through the centuries in recognition of the courage displayed by the people of Geneva.
In this act of remembrance, Franconis embodies the spirit of unity and resilience that defines the historical narrative of L’Escalade. As we join in this tradition, let’s reflect on the valor of the past and celebrate the bonds that tie us to Geneva’s rich heritage.
Joyeuse L’Escalade to all! ๐ฐ๐ฌ
