This year the traditional carriage stroke will be accompanied by a very significant moment for the Community: The Blessing of a Child. They invited all children under 14 years old, who will receive a balloon (With the ability to personalize with a message and your contact details, hoping thus to establish new contacts with those who were to pick it up eventually) be released into the air.
Reference is made to ride the wagon Pralormo at least a couple of centuries and Mons.Pietro Joseph Conti in his book "Adventures of a parish priest in the diocese of Asti, 1903, report that they have found citations of the wagon in the parish period dating back to 1734.
A Pralormo, as elsewhere in the Piedmont (remember for example Riva at Chieri, Chieri, Villanova and St. Paul Solbrito), it is customary to run the car on the occasion of the patron. Tradition has it that a four-wheeled wooden cart pulled by oxen, but with the passage of time has been modernized and adapted to various local situations. The main purpose of the chariot race was to raise funds for the needs of the Church dedicated to the patron saint. The task of organizing and managing the collection is given annually to two presidents (also known as "Masie") this year are the spouses Renato and Nadia Burzio with the takeover (next year) and Livio Antoinette Rinaudo.
By the time this first appearance he added others such as the procession through the streets of the town, the recitation of "stranot" enchantment of the hat. For several years (over 20) Pralormo to the cart does not move from the square since the displacement along Via Umberto I was considered too broad.
The "stranot" whose contents are poems in dialect or praise the actions of the public good or less good to mock those who are charged with managing the common good.
The magic hat, another peculiarity of Pralormo wagon and a few others in the area, recalls the "abbeys" manly or companies, once much in vogue in the countries. The conquest of the hat to those conferred by magic was in their possession, power, authority and immunities and crowned "King of the party." It 's a tradition that has never been extinguished for ever.
Thanks to the cooperation and intervention of the municipal administration since last year the car will again be "pulled" (actually still remains in the square opposite the Church) by a pair of oxen, dressed in the vestments of the party, so as in the past: there are about 40 years that was not the case anymore! Even in the early eighties, the wagon was pulled by a tractor "brand new, offered for the occasion by a dealer in the area."
Since 2008, a component of each village Pralormo, salt on the car for a quick play "stranot" mercy seat. After follow
