Evening in Mesilla

In addition to the restaurants located in the Town of Mesilla (look at our restaurant side-bar), we are delighted that several of our outstanding merchants in Mesilla have agreed to provide discounts to individuals, who will be attending this year's MALCS Summer Institute.  Also, numerous merchants have agreed to stay open on Thursday, July 23, 2009 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. to welcome our MALCS attendees.  They generally close at 5 p.m., so this is a huge concession to all of us.  We are listing these merchants below!  Please be sure to let them know that you are attending the MALCS Summer Institute when you visit their establishments.  Also, please thank them for staying open longer for us.  Gracias!
