East Cape Recycling Baja had a GREAT summer with three important environmental education workshops. Possible in great part to your participation in our fundraising efforts!
1) This summer we created a recycling environmental education music program for Cursos de Verano (summer day-camp) for the local kids (80 kids total, ages 6-12). Sofia with WILDCOAST/COSTASALVAjE introduced us to Pablo Ruiz from San Jose, our drummer and maestro for our program. The kids made recycled instruments from buckets, tin cans, 5 gallon water bottles, individual water bottles and metal beer bottle caps. Pablo created and directed a fabulous percussion program that included a “call to action” song in Spanish The rough translation is:
We separate garbage
We fulfill the need
We protect nature
We respect our sea

We are the children of 'percubetas'

We must be ever vigilant
We care about the environment
We are the protectors
We give recycling lessons

“Percubetas’ is a Spanish portmanteau, that means drums (percussion) made from buckets.
The kids were fantastic!!!! You can watch the final performance on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3BEs7jQlYY
Special thanks to our Cursos de Verano volunteers Renee Lagloire, Janinie Barnes Webb, Erica Martz; Kathy Obenshain for helping with the Recycling Contest; Lorena and Norma for recycling fabric scraps that we used to decorate the instruments; Bob Rosa and Adrian for help making the stick tambourines; and many people in the community who recycled materials for the program.
2) East Cape Recycling Baja sponsored ‘Solo para Mujeres’ (For Women Only) a special 8 hour environmental workshop over two days. Sofia Gomez with WILDCOAST/COSTASALVAjE taught the local women how to separate inorganic waste and recycle plastic, metal, cardboard/paper, glass and EPS 6 foam (packaging for appliances). The women made wonderful craft projects from recyclable materials and learned how to compost organic waste to be used to supplement the soil and make their gardens beautiful. The program was a great success and we have had requests and plan to repeat the program in the fall.

3) Francie Olachea invited East Cape Recycling Baja to participate in a special Off-Road Racing program for the local kids. Off-Road Race sponsor Manolo Nuñoz and our Los Barriles race car drivers attended with their race cars to teach the kids about off-road racing. East Cape Recycling Baja discussed the importance of the spectators cleaning up their trash from the arroyos and beaches upon leaving the race, to protect our environment and the responsibility of each of us to help sustain our local economy that depends and thrives on keeping our beaches and ocean clean. Sr. Nuñoz made a commitment to work with East Cape Recycling Baja to ensure that there are trash barrels available along the spectator areas of the future race routes and help educate spectators about using them. We created a bumper sticker, that translated says "I Care for My Beaches” and distributed them at this event. Many were attached to the off-road race cars. The bumper stickers are free. If you would like one, please email us at info@eastcaperecyclingbaja.com  and we will see that you get one when we return in October.

We are very proud of all that was accomplished this summer. Please help us and continue to do your part. REDUCE, REUSE and RECYCLE and keep our community clean and beautiful. We will see you in the fall.

===========================================

What success! This summer's Cursos de Verano was greeted with anticipation and enthusiasm by the 80 children participating in East Cape Recycling Baja's environmental program. I want to personally thank and acknowledge Holly Burgin, who worked tirelessly and relentlessly, often in the blazing sun and hot, humid conditions, not just for the three weeks of summer camp but for weeks in advance to assure that every detail was attended and that the entire program was managed and supervised to it's fullest success. I have great respect and appreciation for her commitment to these children, their culture and their future. The best news to share with you? Change is happening; the messages we are communicating to respect our environment and cherish it's resources are setting; these children are creating a new ethos and embracing a philosophy that will surely have positive and profound effects on our local environment. This culture of environmental concern and care will grow around us and them as they mature and move into the world. I'm immensely proud to be associated with Holly and in awe of her directing of the 2014 summer program. On behalf of our businesses, we are also pleased to be participating and able to help support the program by hosting it at our East Cape Casas & RV Resort. Along with Shaun, Omar, my staff and our captains, Baja’s Awesome Sportfishing was proud once again to take along 14 winners of the Recycling Contest  aboard 'Awesome' and 'Too Awesome' for a day of fishing to experience the beautiful Sea of Cortez. Please visit our facebook page Baja's Awesome Sportfishing for photos! With gratitude, Theresa Comber and crew.
