Felix Pedro marches down main street with a parade behind him to weigh in the first poke of gold. Local residents and shopkeepers dress in period costumes or risk spending the day in the Golden Days' jail. Visitors can avoid arrest by buying a Golden Days' souvenir pin. Of course, participation in the festivities is completely voluntary. The games test strength, agility, and balance.
