Rotary Club Wheel Chairs

It was in mid-May that an e-mail was sent to Wardens by the Consulate in Guadalajara announcing that some 200 or so wheel-chairs were to be given without charge to those who needed them in Jalisco, Colima and Nyarit. The sponsor of this generous gesture was the Rotary Club of Tucson Arizona - www.tucsonrotary.org ....and the details of choosing the fortunate recipients were to be handled by the Rotarians in the Puerto Vallarta area. Application forms were completed, Photos taken and other documents submitted in order to assure that La Manzanilla's two applicants every bit as worthy as any others. So they were judged by the committee and just last week Elpidia Vera Gonzales and Augustin Silva Guerrero received their chairs from Rotarian Don Merriman who drove down from PV for the purpose.Thanks also go to Julie who was instrumental in the process.
