The SOS Dog Rescue non-profit association and the Chapala government have forged an agreement to maintain operations of the municipality’s Refugio Canino (canine shelter) on a permanent basis.

With the aim of pressuring local government officials to act responsibly in the protection of Lake Chapala’s neighboring mountain range, some 150 inhabitants of lakeshore communities staged a protest march through the streets of Chapala on Sunday, December 13.

Foreign nationals residing in the lakeshore region will be eligible to receive Covid-19 under the federal government’s inoculation program, says Dr. Ramiro Gil, director of Jalisco’s Región Sanitaria IV based in La Barca.

Members of Ajijic’s Brigada Xupinayatl assisted Chapala firefighters and Civil Protection officers in the December 8 rescue of a hiker who suffered injuries during a trek along the rocky El Tepalo trail.

Chapala retiree Christian Robertson is a man on a mission, and he’s asking you to join him.

Following the federal Tourism Ministry’s December 1 announcement adding Ajijic to the Pueblo Mágico roster, the designation was celebrated at a private gala hosted by local entrepreneurs on Thursday, December 3, on the grounds of the Nimué Club Naútico in La Floresta.
