prizes for biggest fish in men’s, women’s and youth divisions will
be given out over the 4 days. Anglers can choose to fish just one or
up to all 4 days. We actually had two winners from East Cape last
year. One was the Day 2 Junior Angler and the other was the largest

Baseball Day Camp Date Set!
We have set the date! Saturday, November 22, 9am – 3pm for the
Baseball Day Camp in Campomento – for the Campomento, Santa Cruz and
Los Cuevas school kids ages 6 – 14 yrs. The date was changed to a
weekend because we had requests from several of the fathers wanting
participate. We need the fathers to be able to continue with the
training, so this is good.
The camp will start with basics. Hitting, Catching and
Throwing/Pitching. Each kid will go through every station. We will
serve lunch of Hot dogs, cooked by the mothers.
How can you help?
We need cookies - homemade or store bought for lunch AND granola
bars for morning snacks.
We still need volunteers for our ‘coaches’. Spanish knowledge great,
but not necessary as we will have translators.
We even need folks to help pass out shirts for each kid and get kids
from station to station.
Cash donations to help with food expenses
More baseball equipment is always welcome
We will have donated equipment so each community/school will be able
to have a set – including catchers gear!
This is a busy Saturday with Monte Carlo night, but we
ended the camp at 3pm so all of us could get home get ready for the
night – and you don’t have to cook as Monte Carlo Night includes
your dinner!
Please contact me if you have any equipment, or can help with
volunteering, food or just have questions. Chris

ANSWERS -
DISCUSSIONS-
This category must have name and/or email address.
a. Cell Phone Discussion:
1)
Verizon and Sprint are CDMA carriers in the US and Mexico. Those
carriers are available only in La Paz and Cabo. They do charge a fee
for service in those areas. Verizon is slowly departing the CDMA
network but I'm not sure even the new phones are compatible with the
local GSM networks. TMobile and ATT are available through roaming
service provided by TelCel and MoviStar. ATT offers a reasonably
priced Viva Mexico Plan but you have to press them to make sure it's
still available. Remember their "North American Plan" is history.
TMobile with certain plans offers free text and data at 2G speeds.
TMobile does have a reduced price voice roaming plan for Mexico. The
cheapest is a non-contract carrier - Republic Wireless. They use the
Sprint Network in the US; that will not work in Mexico but it will
connect through your wireless network at home for around $8 per
month. You can change your plan up to twice a month. All plans give
you unlimited text, voice and data. Their standard 3G plan in the US
is under $30 per month. With Republic Wireless you have unlimited
calling to and from the US over WiFi. Personally, I have ATT and
Republic Wireless phone service.
Remember, most carriers charge a huge premium for
international data. If you don't have an international data plan
with your carrier, turn the data off. thecomputerguy (thecomputerguy@usa.com)
2) There have been questions about which US company has the
best cell service in Baja. I suggest you look into getting a Telcel
SIM for your US phone. We have iPhone 4S and a 5C through Verizon in
California. When we arrive Baja, we simply remove the Verizon SIMs
and install the Telcel SIMs. It’s dramatically cheaper than US
plans, ca. MXN$2/minute. US plans for Baja are expensive at
USD$0.75/min. The good thing is you never get shocked by how much it
cost when you get your bill; if you run out of Telcel minutes, it
simply stops working for calls; but you can recharge by telephone or
at OXXO stores. Or you can buy a simple Nokia for MXN$300. The only
complication with either of these is that you need to tell
friends/family your Telcel number.
