You may have already heard that Maureen (Muzz) Laverty, an eight year Boquete resident who had a total hip replacement in 2020, earned the right to compete in the UCI Gran Fondo World cycling championships by winning her age group in a qualifying race in Costa Rica last month.
This year's championships are being held in Aalborg, Denmark, August 29 - September 1. Airfare, hotels, meals and other expenses are beyond belief! She has no sponsor or other financial support. Please help realize her dream of competing against the best in the world!
Come to Tapout Thursday, July 25th, from 5pm to 8pm, for a FREE dance party and benefit and show your support! DJ MIKE will provide the party tunes, there will be $2 drink specials, a fabulous buffet for just $15 including choice of Chicken in creamy veggies and bacon sauce or Honey garlic shrimp, Garden Salad, & mashed potatoes, plus a 50/50 raffle, cool auction items, and more. Tickets for the buffet will be available at the Tuesday Market at Tapout, and at the Thursday Boquete Community Market at the Amigos de Animales Building in Alto Boquete.

Community Christmas Party Hosted by Amigos de Boquete Comunidad
By Moderator_02,
The party was planned and executed by a recently formed group of expats under the name of Amigos de Boquete Comunidad (ABC). Joe Hart and his wife, Linda, along with numerous volunteers put together this festive gathering. Our hats off to Joe, Linda, and all of their elves.
Here are a few pictures from this event:

ARF Thanksgiving Meal
By Bud,
An unexpected plus for us was that we finally got to meet Beth Abrahams (it is kind of a long story, don't ask).
Beth Abrahams
We also got to catch up with all of the latest travels and happenings of our friends who were at our table. Met a few new people, etc.
There simply was nothing that we could fault (not our goal anyway). This is the way things should be done, and ARF did it with all of their wonderful volunteers. If someone found fault with something yesterday, then I would chalk them off as being a token curmudgeon. Thank you ARF! GREAT JOB!!!!
Thank you to all who helped make yesterday's Thanksgiving Day celebration such a huge success, and special thanks to N&N:
I will close with: we all have a lot to be thankful for.
