A lackluster government project to resurface the Ajijic plaza has morphed into a titanic community initiative to create a public showcase for its talented artists and tradesmen.

The discovery of three corpses dumped on the side of the highway on the eastern outskirts of San Juan Cosala early Saturday, April 14 has put lakesiders in a state of shock over a rising tide in criminal violence.

Three Ajijic residents were shot dead in back-to-back incidents late Sunday, April 8. Two other persons considered as innocent bystanders were injured by stray bullets.

As the Community Safety Initiative team continues to solidify its efforts to support local authorities in crime prevention and effective law enforcement, the program is drawing attention on a wider scale across and beyond Mexico.

The Mexican Association for Retirement Communities (AMAR) will put on its expo/conference this year at the Real de Chapala Hotel on June 8 and 9.

A clear sign of the green revolution gaining ground along the Chapala shoreline, forward-thinking business leaders are opting for financially and environmentally beneficial technology.
