PALS are moving their monthly meetings to Rumours on Camposol sector B in an effort to encourage more of the public to participate in the planning of our activities and events. From September the general meeting will be at 11am on the second Monday of each month and from October the events committee will convene at 11.30 on the first Wednesday of each month. Please come along and meet the gang and put your time and expertise to work in the areas Oldest Premier Humanities Charity. All our money goes to Life Saving and Protection. We are not an animal charity.

PALS receive assistance from regular supporters and may we take this opportunity to thank The Costa Cálida Chronicle for their long-term help. Luz del Sol have provided all of this year's ticket printing and have offered to continue into 2009. Sam Sims provides the art work for our posters. Sue at the Print Shop has been most helpful and Globos Balloons and Cactus are stalwart supporters and of course all of you who enjoy what we do.
