Marrecs de Salt

They are also to be considered as the local group in Girona,[5] together with their university counterpart: Xoriguers de la UdG.

In 2011 the group moved to their current premises in Naus Guixeres which is also in Coma-Cros[4] and in 2012 they built their first 2 in 8 with double base, which ended up being only crowned, together with completed 3 in 8 and 4 in 8, building three towers of eight levels together in the same performance for their first time.

The following table displays the performances that have been historical milestones for the group: The calendar Marrecs follow each year has five special highlights: two annual ones in Salt (Festa Major and Colles de l'Eix), two annual ones in Girona (Sant Narcís and the walking walking pillar of the cathedral) and the Human Tower Competition, held in Tarragona biannually every even year and to which they have attended seven times until 2014.

Starting on its very first edition back in 1999 in Manresa, it is a tradition to end the performance with a brotherhood 4 in 7, a tower build with a quarter of the base and one row of each of the participating groups, making with the different colors of the shirts (blue, striped blue, burgundy and orange), a colourful and unusual tower.

[11][41] In 2010, being the last performance of a bad season,[42] the pillar collapsed and it had to be rebuilt just to walk a few steps left, surrounded by the applauses of the audience.

[43] The journalist, and member of the group, Ester Bertran[44] released the video Ho portem dins (It is inside us in English), that soon became popular.

They loaded this tower for the first time in their history on 26 October 2014 in the festivity of Diada de Sant Narcís in Girona[18] The best seasons of the group are 2013 and 2014, in which they have established the 2 in 8 with double base, completed the pillar of 6 and crown their first 5 in 8.

The presidential board has Sebastià Morató as the president, with vicepresident, secretary, treasurer and representatives for the musicians, communication, children, health and safety and welcoming committee.

[83] In 2010 Federació d'Ateneus de Catalunya gave them the Ateneus award for their social and cultural activities, thanks to the project of integration of the Senegal immigrants in Salt, mixing traditional activities of the Catalan people with music form the Senegalese association of musicians Oudiodial.

[84] In 2002, the city council of Girona placed a plate in Plaça del Vi to commemorate the 4 in 8 and the crowned 3 in 8 of the performance of Sant Narcís the previous.

[85] In 2002, the city council of Salt placed a plate in Lluís Companys square to commemorate the first tower of eight level ever completed in the village.
