Cayo Scoop! The Ecology of Cayo Culture

Feelgood news of the day.  Two Cayo primary schools have new bathrooms now, courtesy of the Rotary Clubs of San Ignacio and Fairbanks, Alaska. Howard Smith Nazarene and New Life Primary schools both have new bathroom blocks now, and the kids are very appreciative.  Thanks, Rotary, for all you do for Cayo!

"Howard Smith Nazarene School in Benque Viejo has a new toilet block and the smile on the faces says it all. Sanitation and hygiene is as important to education as the subjects the students study.  Thank you Rotary Club of Fairbanks for partnering with the Rotary Club of San Ignacio to make this dream come true."

Feelgood news of the day, animal edition.  Remember that dog?  Cayo, the stray from Burns avenue, is now with her newly adopted owner in Alaska.  This is a great story of a tourist bonding with a local potlicker, and with CAWS' help, getting the dog back home.  Well worth the read.  Thanks, CAWS!

"After nearly a month, Cayo arrived in Juneau on an Alaska Airlines flight. Leach was there to meet Cayo and her handler, Mendi Antisdel, at the Juneau International Airport on Thursday afternoon.  When the crate was unloaded in the baggage claim area, Leach was giddy with excitement; she had a friend drive her because she was vibrating with nervous energy.  As soon as she could, Leach released Cayo from the crate and clutched the medium-sized, black dog to her chest. Cayo licked her face in greeting.  Cayo is home now.  Cayo has a happy ending. By Thursday afternoon she was wrapped up in a sweater by a fire, acclimating to a new life with colder weather but warm embraces."
