Nature’s Surprises

by hamanasi on May 1, 2010

Sometimes Mother Nature surprises you with an unexpected encounter that is beautiful and thrilling!  These dolphins kept divers entertained throughout their dive yesterday as they searched for whale sharks.  No whale shark sightings for the day, but happy divers for the experience!

The April 2010 Hopkins Humane Society Free Spay & Neuter Clinic has come to a close after enjoying a hugely successful clinic and fundraiser!

The clinic was manned by ER vets from Minnesota, Clara Lee Arnold (the Stateside clinic coordinator), Nancy & Les Collier (local Humane Society organizers) and many, many wonderful local volunteers from in and around Hopkins Village. Congratulations to everyone involved! Hamanasi looks forward to future joint endeavors with HBHS and will continue to be a proud year-around supporter. Thank you, again, for the generous donations from Hamanasi guests past, present & future! For more about the Hopkins Belize Humane Society, click on the following link to see information and photos!
