Big Winners!!! Dave and Elaine Greinier in Phase II have very generously donated 40,000 pesos – their winnings from the Estrella del Mar Golf Tournament! The two golfers, along with their six friends – Kelly Dunn, Bob Blanscett, John and Katerine Portz, Aaron Bunker and Tom Newton agreed before the tournament that whatever winnings the group had at the tournament would be combined and given to the Friends of Barron Library Project. Their total winnings equaled 40,000 pesos (Dave won closest to the hole). This fabulous gift will help us purchase windows, a door and the electrical wiring for the elementary/community library.

Thank you to Tim, Nancy, Brent and William Muzyka from Phase III for their donation of 12,000 pesos which allowed us to fix the roof and walls in the library.

Thank you to Christina, daughter of Jim and Frances Barnes, Phase I) for her donation of school supplies to the Kindergarten.
