Linda Posted July 6, 2018 Author Share Posted July 6, 2018 ACCBoquete would like to say a big THANK YOU to all our friends in Boquete for making our 4th of July fundraising event at Big Daddy's a success. Here are the results...winners of the silent auction items were: Donna O'Brien, Heather Dyer, Franc Lugo, Joyce Kinnear, Javier Samaniego, Geovana Caballero, Doris Martinez, Rich, Vicki Phelps, and Patti Powers. The winner of the 50/50 Raffle was none other than ACCBoquete's friend, Leslie King, who walked away with $119.00! Congratulations to all the winners. As for the results of the fundraiser, we reached our goal to purchase a refrigerator for the Police checkpoint substation and then some. A special collection was taken for the family of Nurys Castrellon who was murdered last Sunday. We collected $168.00 to which ACCBouquete added additional money to round off to $200. This is in keeping with our Mission Statement which states we support First Responders and the Community. This is a horrific tragedy for the Manuel Castrellon family and we are glad we could help. We would like to extend our appreciation to the businesses that provided the gift certificates for the silent auction.....Sugar & Spice, Mail Boxes, Etc., Milano Italiano, and Big Daddy's Beach Resort. Thank you to Big Daddy's Chris Young, Justin Isham and all the staff for great food, drinks and service and Bill McGraw for the entertainment! ACCBoquete is proud to be apart of Boquete.

Linda Posted July 10, 2018 Author Share Posted July 10, 2018 (edited) At the 4th of July fundraiser, ACCBoquete took up a special collection for the family of the woman who was murdered on July 1st. We added to the amount collected and 2 of our members delivered it with our sympathies on July 8. Thanks to every one of you who contributed to this special fund. Our prayers go out to her family. Thank you Boquete! Edited July 10, 2018 by Linda Picture was too large. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linda Posted August 8, 2018 Author Share Posted August 8, 2018 ACCBoquete purchased a small refrigerator from LaReyna's in Boquete and delivered it to the Police Station and then transferred by Police truck to the substation at the checkpoint at the Caldera checkpoint. By purchasing the refrigerator at LaReynas, we kept the July 4th fundraiser money in Boquete. Thanks again to all who attended the fundraiser and made this happen.
