Congratulations to Flamingo resident Barbara Deppe, who is one of our animal champions here in Guancaste. She just received authorization for permits from the Costa Rican government to open her official rescue center. The government also informed her that a veterinarian would be coming to her center weekly to help out. Thank you to all who helped Barbara with support and donations. For more info, call Barbara at 2654-4148 or stop by the pet shop in Flamingo.

Ruta La Paz is back with its third edition. Grab your running shoes and bring the whole family to join in a breathtaking run on the beach, followed by music at sunset on Nov. 10.
