without
any large plans or long-term ambitions in mind, a group of
enthusiasts from the famous neighborhood of
copacabana decided
to create a carnival bloc just for the fun it would give them
and their neighbors.
at this
time these people simply went to the streets making noise with
anything they could get their hands on - in 1966 the congregation
decided to make this group they'd created official and
registered it in bloc federation as the unidos da villa rica.
