Dear DACR Friend,



Democrats Abroad Costa Rica is hosting a PAELLA/POTLUCK PARTY on Saturday, July 27th, 11 AM to 2 PM, at the garden home Kathy Rothschild and Ross Tatum are renting in Santo Domingo de Heredia, near Hotel Bougainvillea. Everyone is welcome. There are two acres of beautiful gardens to wander around. Please wear shoes for outdoor grass. There are no paths here - all grass.



Spanish Chef, Antonio, will be making Paella outdoors in a huge Paella pan. This will be a traditional mixed seafood and meats paella. The cost per person will be 4000 colones. We are asking attendees to bring a salad, a dessert, or drinks to share to compliment the Paella. (Unfortunately, Antonio cannot make an additional vegetarian or non-pork/non-seafood paella, so if you have these dietary restrictions, please bring your own main dish.)



As a special treat Humbertina and Hugo – Kathy & Ross’s neighbors and owners of FINMAC, Rainforest Alliance certified organic cacao producers — will give a short demonstration of how chocolate is made and offer a tasting. After which you are welcome to buy chocolate. (1/2 the proceeds will be donated to DACR)



Kathy and Ross will need help moving chairs and tables from the Zen center next door, so we need some volunteers to come early and help set-up.



For reservations, please respond to this Email, or Email cr.democratsabroad@yahoo.com, or call Nelleke at 2279-3553. Please state if you are available to help set-up and whether you will bring a salad, a dessert, or drinks, alcoholic or non-alcoholic.



We will again have bus transportation. Bus costs 4000 colones per person, round trip. Stops: 10 AM at Paco (Escazú), 10:30 at Teatro Nacional. Please arrive at the bus stop before the scheduled time. For bus reservation, Email cr.democratsabroad@yahoo.com or contact David Sagel at 2203-8193, or Email at davsag79@aol.com



Maps will be provided to any coming on their own.
