FROM THE PRESIDENT

Gale Hankel

Tel. 225-1177

Now it is March 2001, and how time flies when you are having fun. I guess that is why we all chose Puerto Vallarta? A couple of weeks ago I accompanied three dentists associated with the Dental Association here in Puerto Vallarta to the Rafael Ramirez Casteņon school in Pitillal, to distribute a portion of the toothbrushes that were donated to our club. It was a very rewarding experience to see the doctors explain how to brush with charts and to hear the response from the children as to how many times a day to brush. (see photos)

I also want all of you with a computer to log on to our website below to print out the letter which you can give to your favorite restaurant, so that we may obtain a discount from them as Club Members. We need them to send us something in writing so it can be documented. Also you can print out your membership form to send in or bring in.

You will note elsewhere in this newsletter that the Kamakura restaurant and

Really Rosie´s have been added to our restaurant discount list. (check back page for full list of restaurants).

We are at the middle of our Home Tours season and we need more docents to train to help out with the Tours. so come on down, those of you that haven't yet been involved. Contact Irma Willis at 222-3298.

Do not forget about our "Potluck" 7 pm, the 20th of March, with the Folkloric Ballet "XIUTLA" company performing at 8:00 pm. Look for the time the potluck in the events schedule. This is a fun social evening. See you all there!

TREASURERS REPORT

Sharon Eggers 221-5442

 

We are on target with our income predictions for this year.  The 2001-2002 proposed budget will be presented at the March General Meeting, but it may be adjusted at the April meeting, as we will have a better idea as to how the year went.

 

As my 2nd term comes to a close, I want to say that I enjoyed this position very much (O.K. most of the time).  I thank the Board, Committee heads, worker bees and Annie for helping to make my job easier, and for their confidence in me.  Buena suerte to the new Treasurer!
