Soccer Equipment Donations to BOLA


In prior years us ole farts have have camped and fished in Concepcion Bay. We brought with us donated soccer equipment; i.e. jerseys, bags, etc. from some schools in north san diego and gave it to the town of Mulege. Well fishing sucks there so this year heading to BOLA in a few days for some serious fishing with the soccer gear in tow. Is there a sports person or school in town we can drop in on and give this valuable booty to?

I suggest Antonio & Bety Resendiz at Campo Archelon (the turtle camp) and/or their neighbors, the Italian Mauro and his American wife Patty - they all have kids in the local school.

Good luck!

Those naked children of Mauro and Patty just might be too much to handle.

I suggest that you would find a better and immediate home for the supplies at the library which is between the school and city hall. Luz Maria interfaces with the school on many levels in adition to being the city librarian.

You might also want to take some books to the library--they accept English as well as Spanish books and of course supplies of all sorts...

Another option (always good to have backup in Baja) is Carolina Espinoza who runs the Museum in town. I give her all my donations and she gets them out to the schools and community.

The library and museum are also great resources, of course.

By the way Patty bakes great bread! Sells it very reasonable...

Yes, Patty's bread is good as is her pizza. Last time we were down (Feb), Mauro threw a party to mark the almost opening of his hostel on the hill..
