DISCUSSIONS – ANSWERS – ANNOUNCEMENTS
a. Kindergarten Needs Picture Books – LB kindergarten is looking for picture books. Geared to new readers or non readers. Words in English is fine. So raid your grandchildren’s books before you come and let’s fill the shelves at the kindergarten!! Questions? Contact eastcapersmagazine@gmail.com Thanks from Asociacion de Artes!
b. I had many fellow BPE readers ask me to let them know what I came up with regarding emergency medical evacuation insurance. The one company that was recommended the most was TravelMedEvac. It is available through a number of agents or direct. I believe our own East Cape Health supports that. From what I can see no insurance will cover an emergency evacuation flight back to the USA if you have Covid or test positive for Covid. – robbieflatt@gmail.com

c. Our team at the Salon de Cortez is looking forward in seeing our clients returning to Los Barriles for the winter season. We want to assure everyone that we are doing everything possible to take extra precautions
for our client’s safety and well being. In doing so, we decided to make changes to our appointment schedules. In response to the COVID pandemic and respecting social distancing, we are concentrating on creating more space for clients to receive their services comfortably in the salon. For now we are will only schedule 2 pedicures at a time in the main salon space. We also have an additional space available upstairs for manicures and pedicures for clients that prefer to have more additional social distance. These appointments upstairs can be made with Nenna or Karem on request while scheduling. A more social distance appointment with Viry for hair or nail services can be made on Monday. She and Karem will be the only providers present on that day. Contact us for appointments by phone 124 8056 or e-mail salon.cortez@yahoo.com
