On February 16, 2008, the fourth Rhythm 'n Ribs was held in the plaza in
Bucerias. It was estimated that 1500 people attended this event. One of
the many wonderful things about these events in the plaza is that they
are attended by the local Mexican people as well as the ex-pat residents
and visitors to the area.
More than 40 raffle prizes were donated by restaurants and businesses of
the area. Many original works of art were donated and sold via a silent
auction.
Entertainment consisted of a Hawaiian dance troupe from Puerto Vallarta, Ballet Folklorico from the Valle, the Municipal Band of the Bahia de Banderas. Our master of ceremonies was Denise Fiske-Chow, ably assisted by the Margarita, one of the primary care givers at the shelter.
The many volunteers from the area, including visitors, manned the ticket
booths, bars and food booths. This is a wonderful example of the
community pulling together to help this worthy cause of building an
orphanage/shelter for the needy children. Continued help in the
form of donations is still needed to complete our project and to fund
the many other needs of the children. You can help, your financial
support goes directly to the organization,
please donate! |
