We are asking for donations to help a local family fly to Tijuana to received medical care for their 3 year old son Ulises, who has tumors threatening his eyesight. He is already blind in one eye and needs medical attention before the tumor takes his sight completely. Last summer he went to mainland Mexico, Obregon, and was told nothing could be done. Thank you all who donated to help for this previous trip. He is now being helped by a charity organization in San Diego but they need new testing in Tijuana so they can make a diagnosis and evaluate his situation. Anything you could give would help with their travel expenses and be greatly appreciated. For donations or questions please contact Fatima at fcr1@live.com   or call at 624-141-0243. Thank you.

The East Cape Guild would like to say a great big thanks to the musicians at Roadrunner Weds Open Mic Night for deciding to donate the proceeds from the "tip jar" to our Scholarship Fund. You can enjoy great music and help keep local kids in high school by contributing as the hat is passed around. Have fun, feel good, and do good all at the same time!
============================================

Hello East Capers,
     I would like to announce the birth of a new fishing club in East Cape named “Club de Pesca Deportiva Cabo del Este, A.C.” (East Cape Sportfishing Club), we have been authorized by the Baja California Sur State Sports Office to be the official club in the area, plus we are recognized by the National Sportfishing Federation as a club. Myself and 13 other people organized to begin this fishing club, with the objective of making local events for all of us that enjoy sportfishing, plus we are planning to do some other activities. This is not a only Mexican club, it will be for all of us that live here in the East Cape area.
     Some of the people who are starting the club are: Tom Kolasinski (Beerman), Esaul Valdez, Axel Valdez, Octavio Aviles (TurisPancho), Juan Angel Rochin (accountant), Javier Cota (fishing captain), Israel Araiza (Cuyuyo), Carlos Almanza (East Cape Tackle and Panga Captain), Leonel Tamayo (Chapitos), Luis Eduardo Verdugo (Taxis), and others.
          We already have an agenda for  2012. So far we have the following events coming:
·   Sunday Feb 19th: 1st Annual Sierra Fishing Tournament
· Sunday April 29th: 1st Annual Dia Del Niño (Childrens Day) yellowtail Tournament. Here the idea is to each team be obligated to bring a kid under 12 to be the fisherman.
·    Saturday Sept 15th: 1st Annual Club de Pesca Deportiva Cabo del Este, A.C. Marlin, Dorado and Tuna Tournament: This will be the official tournament of the club. We are working  to obtain a sponsorship from our government of $100K pesos for the first place, this is not confirmed yet, but soon we will now if they are going to support us.
· Saturday Nov 24th: Only Club Members Catch and Release Tournament.
    I invite all of you interested in participating in the Club, please contact me at felipe@hotelbuenavista.com  or cell  624-122-5019, I will be more than happy to introduce you to our Club and to receive all the help we can to organize amazing sportfishing and social events.
Best regards,  Felipe Valdez, President 2012 – 2014
