Cayo Scoop! The Ecology of Cayo Culture

Feelgood news of the day.  The Rotary Club of San Ignacio had the ceremony for this year's recipients of the Rafael Cal Memorial High School Scholarship.  Six students received scholarships to go to local high schools.  Thanks, Rotary!  

"Each September we welcome six new students into our Rafael Cal Memorial High School Scholarship program. Congratulations, Javeed Romero, Shamira Hernandez, Nathaniel Gonzalez, Keian White, Carly Galvez and Jossiah Lucas! They were selected from the primary schools in San Ignacio and Santa Elena and are now enrolled in Sacred Heart College, Eden SDA High School, and St. Ignatius High School. 57 students have graduated through this program."

Congratulations to all the winners from The Rotary Club of San Ignacio's Voice of the West elocution contest!  Well done!

Sacred Heart College students Geon Codd and Beyonce Villafranco, along with Agatha Petchau from Belmopan Comprehensive all took 1st place in their category.

Rotary has cause to celebrate: There is a new club in Benque, and the SHC Interact Club was officially launched.  Rotary clubs are known for their community service projects, of which they've had more projects in Belize than one can count.  They're already planning more.  Congratulations, Rotary!

"It was a big day for Rotary in western Belize yesterday and our Club as a sponsor. The Interact Club of Sacred Heart College was officially launched with 24 members in a lovely pinning ceremony and refreshments. Thank you Office Gurus for the donation of the pins!

Last evening in Benque, a group of dedicated community activists started a Rotary Satellite Club with 10 members! Astrid Salazar is the Chair, Carmen Sosa is Chair Elect, Emilza Vaca is Secretary and Juan Pablo Ruiz is the Treasurer. Meetings are Friday nights at 8:30."
