The two day event started with a mass trash pickup on Monday. Approximately 300 kids participated in cleaning the streets and beach. It was pouring
down rain but everyone was still charging. The event was aimed at teaching the kids environmental
awareness. You want to see what can happen if everyone works together? Check out all this trash that was taken off the beach!!!

The second day of the event included a big march through Astillero and then a presentation at the school. The Mayor was in attendance along with other community leaders. MARENA was there to teach the kids the importance of protecting the Chacocente Refugio
which is one of only 7 places in the world where up to 10,000 turtles can lay eggs in one night. The ceremony included skits, dances, puppet shows, and presentations all aimed at protecting the environment.

The brainchild Surfari Charters, we also kicked off a new program in Astillero which is aimed at on-going trash pick-up. Basically we presented three surfboards to the Mayor Loida and
Doribel Lopez of Astillero (community leader). The surfboards will be kept at the fish co-op where all kids can come and rent them for two hours by bringing
two large trash bags of trash collected from the beach or other public areas. As we look to expand the program in Astillero and beyond, we would be stoked on further donations of surfboards (especially tuff-lites 6'0" and under, which should last longer). Each board could represent 2-10 bags of trash coming off of the beach each day. This is a great way to contribute to the surfing community and help teach environmentally conscious behavior to the kids at the same time. Please contact us if you are interested in donating a surfboard to this cause!

These guys each won their respective category for "best model of an animal". You can see birds, fish and even a turtle. Again, big thanks to Surfari Charters for spearheading this effort and getting involved. We'll keep you posted on upcoming events as we learn about them.

First at all we want to introduce our new "NSR RASTAFARI" , we've been working for 6 weeks to make this a reality. If you are planning to come down to Nicaraggua try to find this Ciclo-Taxi and get a ride on it, you we'll have one of the best experience down here in Nicaragua. Sharing with the NSR crew!!!
