3 Acre Lot Slated for Dental Clinic
The Cooperative de Punta Abreojos has secured a lot for the new dental clinic. It is 80 meters by 80 meters. Which works out to almost 3 acres. The
want to build the clinic and have domitories for the volunteers. Also, we are thinking of 3 hangers for planes which would be for rent when the
volunteers are not in PA.
Lots of great things happening. I am amazed how fast things are moving for Baja. This town is really embracing the help and wants to make life
better for their citizens. I was callled to a meeting with Frankie the secretary of PA Cooperative and who runs the operation from PA. The president
is in Ensenada. He said that the Cooperativa thinks of their business as a family, not just a business. Very progressive thinking for a PRI town.
They are donating all of the materials and possibly the labor.
What exciting news. How one man's dreams can become a reality with the help of so many in so short a time.
You are all welcome to participate, we always need dentists, hygienists, assistants and support staff. Next clinic is sept 10-13 and mid oct.

That is so great and it is wonderful how the town is responding.
Good luck and we will spread the word to dental professionals we know who do traveling missions.

1 meter = 3.28 feet.
80 meters x 80 meters = 1.58 acres.
Very good news for Abre !!

Opps!
New math I guess. Anyway it is way more than we need. Just got the preliminary plans from the architect. Very impressive. We also may have a lead
on a full time dentist to staff the clinic, which would really make a difference. Hopefully a denture lab and a modern recall system and education in
the schools and changes can be made for a more painfree life.
Changing the world one smile at a time!

Phoenix Flying Sams
Love to have you guys come and help. I am having the clinic designed for all three groups. LMV, Sams, and Liga. I do not think being a member of
one group, or servicing one town excludes being in another group, or helping another town. The sams have sworn off LA Bay for now because of two
planes stolen. They are more then welcome to come help in Abreojos. We all have the same mission, to help our fellow man. No need to be territorial
or competitive. We have done alot recently to streamline permission thru La Paz.
Our next clinic is Sept 10-13 and I have four working chairs and only one dentist, me. Come help me!
Thanks!
