UNCOMMON WOMEN ON COMMON GROUND
Wow, who knew painting over graffiti could be so fun! We finished our wall next to the Montaña School in record time and then we were on a mission to find more walls to paint. We decided the bathrooms next to the sport court was a good option. Catharine & Terry decided to clean up another wall off the baseball field. Heidi was the finisher! I guess you could say we felt pretty accomplished.
Many thanks to those who showed up with paint brush, roller & tray in hand. Thanks to Eloy Gonzalez for his work to clean up our city, along with the people from the Municipal Institute for Youth who brought us the paint, Scott McLaughlin for being our official before and after photographer and Juan Carlos at Paladar Habana Vieja Restaurant for feeding and entertaining us.
I’m attaching a few photos for you to enjoy and know others have more to share.
Eloy will let us know when other areas are in need and we can just show up when they have other times set up to paint. We donated all our supplies so they will be available for the next event.
Mark your calendars for Tuesday, November 11th at Jill’s new location at the Costa Brava building in the Old Port , Consign & Design. Details to follow…
Stay tuned for pictures!

PROJECT GRAFFITI WIPE OUT
Let’s get rid of the graffiti!
The Community of Rocky Point is on a mission to wipe out graffiti on homes, businesses and public areas. It is asking residents to help out.
We cordially invite you to our second meeting, held next Thursday, August 7th at 7 pm. The event will take place at the Canaco Auditorium (Chamber of Commerce) located right behind the shrimp plaza. (White building)
As we all know graffiti diminishes the value of the properties and promotes delinquency creating insecurity. That’s why we’re asking Real Estate brokers and agents to become part of this movement.
During the meeting we’ll present the advances that we have achieved so far. We are happy to say that all community sectors have contributed with paint, labor and new ideas. Thus, by working together we believe that soon we’ll be improving the image of Rocky Point.
If you would like more information about our campaign, or would like to contribute and share your ideas please contact Eloy Gonzalez at (638) 112.0898 or e-mail: eloy_glez_glez@hotmail.com
It will be a pleasure to have you all there!
