Editor’s NoteWe are returning to you after an enjoyable summer holiday, which we hope was relaxing and comfortable for all. We get back to work at the beginning of each September to present you with our new and exciting offers and diverse programs that meet your wishes and those of your children. We have been busy this summer studying some of the needs and proposals, and we strove to develop some services in our various facilities to satisfy our dear guests and visitors. We hope you have a good time at the club.
As we are approaching the ‘pink’ month of October—which we have designated to be in support of breast cancer awareness campaigns—we prepared diverse education programs for this purpose. We also will set aside part of the proceeds from the month’s sales toward the Pink Caravan campaign, which works to provide relief to women by helping them recover from the illness, providing early detection, and avoiding later stages. Best wishes of safety and health to all.
