Colón’s message marking the Santa Fe floods | OneFootball

Club Atlético Colón published a heartfelt message on the anniversary of the April 29, 2003 flood, a date that remains deeply rooted in the collective memory of Santa Fe.

In its statement, the club stressed that this episode cannot be reduced to a mere memory, but instead represents a scar that spans generations and forms part of the city’s identity. The institution described it as a turning point that revealed both the fragility and the strength of the people of Santa Fe in one of their most difficult moments.

Colón also highlighted the role of solidarity in the midst of the crisis, emphasizing that, when everything seemed overwhelmed, essential values such as presence, support, and mutual aid emerged. In that context, the club reaffirmed that it was an active part of that social fabric, standing by those who needed it most.

In addition, the message emphasized the importance of memory as a decision of the present and not merely an anchor to the past. From that perspective, the institution maintained that remembering is also a way of recognizing ourselves as a community and strengthening the bonds that sustain it.

Finally, Club Atlético Colón called for what happened not to remain only as a commemorative date, but to endure as awareness and identity. Because, as the club expressed it, there are experiences that cannot be explained: they are absorbed and end up defining what a community is.
