A food tasting featuring the cuisine of local restaurants, a fashion show and a silent auction are the components of a unique fundraising event for the Auditorium Improvement Project set for Friday, December 9, 3-6 p.m. at the Lake Chapala Society.

Significant measures to avoid future cash flow and operating challenges at the Cruz Roja Chapala delegation have been enacted by the board of directors.

For those of you who aren’t aware yet, the Chapala Chapter of Cruz Roja (Red Cross) is in serious financial difficulty. Several weeks ago, Cruz Roja was unable to meet the payroll and had considerable outstanding bills to their suppliers.
