“The City of Hidalgo couldn’t be more proud of its superheroes, both big and small,” said City Manager Julian Gonzalez. “These kids are superheroes as are the fire and police officials that will accompany them. We can’t thank the Target Corporation enough for recognizing them and their contributions to our city.”
