ANIMAL WELFARE OF CULEBRA ANNOUNCES NEW PROGRAM
The Animal Welfare of Culebra, Inc., a non-profit organization, has announced a new program in conjunction with the new Ecological School in Culebra, to promote the sterilization of the island’s animals. In cooperation with the first, second, and third grade teachers, a program was developed to encourage the children in those grades to convince a parent, neighbor, friend to have their animal(s) sterilized in order to reduce the animal overpopulation in Culebra.
Upon the sterilization, the child will receive a tee shirt with the inscription, “Yo cuido los animales de Culebra.” Their picture will be taken each time an animal is sterilized, placed on a special bulletin board, and, at the end of the school year, the child with the most pictures will receive a special prize.
To learn more about this program, and how you could possibly help, please contact Terrie Hayward, 787-742-0257, or Addie Vasquez, 787-742-0353.

Today, Monday October 1, 2007 the State Department, along with the Department of Homeland Security, will require ALL Americans to have a passport when returning by plane from the Caribbean (Mexico and Canada, as well) in an initiative called, “Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative.” Many people have had major difficulty trying to get their passport on time and some folks have even had to cancel their vacation all together like this woman on CNN.
If you have been dreaming about coming to the Caribbean but don’t want to deal with the delay, expense, and hassle of getting a passport then Culebra is the perfect choice for you. If you are a US citizen you do NOT need to have a passport to come down here for a visit. Flamenco Beach, one of the nicest beaches in the Caribbean is only a plane ride or ferry ticket away…and you can take the $75.00 that you would have spent on getting a passport and instead you can have a nice meal out while you are here.
This post is brought to you by the passport free Palmetto Guesthouse a small Culebra hotel offering affordable accommodation.
