Roatan News 'tid bits'
New RE/MAX franchise opens in West Bay! Our company now has a second RE/MAX franchise located at Keyhole Bay in West End. Dan Taylor, the developer of Keyhole Bay, is the broker and Peggy Orange is now a RE/MAX associate based at the Keyhole Bay office. Both Peggy and Dan live in Keyhole so there is always someone available. This office makes it very convenient if you’re staying in or visiting West Bay, so stop in and say hello to Dan and Peggy!
Local Artist While you’re visiting Keyhole Bay, ask Kelly McLarnan about her new fundraising project, Made on Roatan Rock Sculptures. Sales benefit local public schools to buy much needed basic supplies, like books, paper, boards and art supplies, which are often scarce in public schools. The project celebrates the work of a local artisan, Naldo Amaya of Pollytilly Bight, who delicately sculpts jadeite into sculptures inspired by marine and island life. Priced from $22 to $80, these beautiful sculptures fit easily in your luggage to take home and wow your friends and family, while benefitting local children.
A Benefit Golf Tournament at the Black Pearl Golf Club will be held on February 27th. Hosted by Roatan Rotary International, this fun activity, a 4 ball scramble, is not to be missed if you’re on the island. All 84 playing slots have been filled and a waiting list started, but come and buy a spectator pass for $20 and watch the good players look great and the inexperienced players (like me) just enjoy the day! Your pass includes bocas at the cocktail presentation. The main benefiting project of this fund raiser is the PIER program and Sand Castle Library and Learning center. Come on down, it will be a fun day (and you might run into some old Dallas Cowboys on the course!).

I realize things are uneasy in many ways financially in the world and the stock market.
