ABOUT THE LIVING LIFE IN COSTA RICA BLOG

I (Vicki Skinner - aka "THE Sarong Goddess") created this blog in 2007 to share DETAILED Finds•Lists•Info•Events•Experiences to help bring more EASE to people living in, visiting or thinking of moving to Costa Rica since DETAILS are NOT easy to find!
I’m NOT an expert (an "expert" 2 ME knows 101%-NOT me). I believe in sharin info•helping where I can! And with over 2,200 entries, so some things might be out of date, so if you find old info PLEASE help each other by getting the updated info & sharing it with me to revise. At least you have some basic info to get you started.
VOLUNTEER TO HELP:
Better yet - do you have extra time on your hands & looking for a volunteer project? Since this blog is a labor of love & RARELY does anyone share a donation (even though MANY have said how much it's helped them), I could REALLY use help updating info. Spanish speakers ESPECIALLY welcome since my VicLish can be somewhat limited at times!!

Memorial Day Celebration
Monday - May 27th, 2103 - 10am
Services Honoring our Departed Comrades
San Antonio de Escazu Cemetery at the post's mausoleums

Everyone is invited to come and honor the brave men and women who sacrificed themselves so that we could reap the rewards of democracy and freedom.


12pm/Noon to 5pm
4th Annual Memorial Day PICNIC
at Villa Amira in Santa Ana
 (ON Calle Vieja [the Old Road] from Escazu to Santa Ana - a quinta next to the gas station at the entrance of Santa Ana)

The picnic is a real old fashion nostalgic authentic picnic just like you remember having back home!
There are Grilled 1/2 pound hamburgers and extra long hot dogs along with potato salad and chili.
Of course all the toppings are included along with back home condiments you really like such as Heinz ketchup, French's mustard, Hellmann's mayo, etc.
There is a cash bar for beverages.

It's FUN for the WHOLE family with a swimming pool, kids play area, open-air Rancho and music all day.

Much of the area IS Wheel-Chair/Handicap Accessible

PRICE:
Hard to believe all this for only 7,000 colones per person and includes seconds for those with big appetites!


MONEY RAISED GOES FOR:
The best part of this is that your support enables the post to support local charities. The entire profits from last year's picnic were donated to charity. Among those charities were Las Damas Voluntarios of Escazu who they joined hands with to fund scholarships to send deserving qualified youngsters whose parents lacked the financial ability to school. These scholarships included complete uniforms including shoes, school supplies, textbooks, tutoring and use of the computer lab.
