"Giving back
I have been fortunate to meet a lot of great travelers who not only take in all Negril and Jamaica has to offer, but make a point to give a little back. From getting kids to school, donate a brick to the Travelers NEET program, spay and neuter clinics in cooperation with Debbile Lightheart, trash pickups, school supplies, etc.

April 27th is another chance to participate for those of you in town for the Boardie Bash. If you attend the bash you will be able to help NEET out as described in the Boardie Bash thread. And if you are still in town you can visit Seastar on April 27th at 1PM to observe the 3rd annual belly flop. Admission is free and any donation of any size is welcome. Proceeds will benefit the Get To School program for local youth. The last two have been a blast and this one will only be bigger. Thank you to Muzicdoc Phil for taking the lead and keeping th vibe right.

All are welcome....."

So it was advertised on Negril.com. Booger asked Boardies to show up. It was attended by Boardies and happened during Boardie week. The whole point of setting the Boardie Bash on the last Friday in April is to get people here during the beginning of slow season.

Thank you all for being down here and helping out the Negril economy during what used to be a slow week!
