This Saturday 7.30 pm at Bar Meson, Benamaurel we will be holding our Christmas party to thank all the volunteers and supporters for all that they do throughout the year - Please come along and join us, fantastic music is being provided by Alec Downie and a bumper raffle (that's not to say you'll win a bumper but there may be one). If you would like to join us in a damn good knees up please pm me so that we can advise the owners of numbers expected.

APA El Capricho dog refuge has a new president following the resignation of Ricardo due to personal reasons, although we were all sad to see Ricardo step down we are delighted that Juan Luis will be taking over from him and many changes will take place over the coming months. We have put in place several sub committees to look after events, publicity, networking etc.

Vera Willems is our new treasurer, John Moody is the temporary Secretary and is handling publicity among other things, Gayil Mclintock remains as our car boot queen, Angie Ellacott, Judith Williams & Kate Wright are the events ladies & Chris Ford is in charge of musical events. This will leave the rest of us to deal with the day to day running of the refuge in the way of food & sawdust collections/deliveries, Steve Mason is in charge of rota's, JL and I will be responsible for vet appointments, adoptions, house checks, re visits & the transportation of dogs.

2015 will be a year of big changes for all concerned with the refuge, we are fund raising to acquire secure land where dogs will vacation on a rota system allowing them to experience far more freedom. If anyone has a secure garden or would like to give a dog a holiday while they themselves are on holiday please contact me to discuss it, you would be making so much difference to the dogs lives - All it takes are a few kind souls to offer a couple of days of love and play Smile We will transport the dogs to and fro and provide food.

We have 2 new members joining us in the Spring from the UK, both are experienced in animal welfare and we hope to have a retired vet also join the team in coming months in an advisory capacity.

If anyone has any questions, advice, ideas or can offer help in any way we would be most grateful.

Thank you.

Matilda.

Thats great news. I feel that el cap had sort of lost its way a bit recently. It now sounds like they have an excellent team and lead by Juan Luis sounds perfect.
Im sorry that we cant make the Christmas shin dig this year, unfortunately it clashes with another major event in Orce. We will try and get across to some more activities though and also do some dog walking.
As always, anything that the Cave forum can do to help it will. Please use it for the dogs advantage.
Best Christmas wishes to all the staff, helpers (past & present) and dogs too! santa rendeer rendeer rendeer rendeer rendeer rendeer rendeer rendeer rendeer

Thanks Dave Smile A 'new broom always sweeps clean' as they say and there's lots to do as always but we've also come a long way in the last few years with the hard work by all the volunteers both in and out of the shelter. Facilities have improved considerably and I think we're all looking forward to the New Year when we will start implementing all the things we're working on at the moment.

A brilliant turn out for the party last night and a massive 160 € raised!!! Thanks to all who joined us and special thanks to Alec for the music Smile
