Back to School?
We have two special cruises occuring this month that will reach out to the Embera Villagers that have touched so many of us. We will be blogging about the events once they occur.
Feed Your Soul- March 18th departure
Cruise West has developed a very special, exclusive relationship with a remote Embera Village in the Darien Jungle. School starts in late March and to get the school ready for the 60 children, who will be attending there, we plan to paint the building exterior and their classroom during our visit. We'll present the teacher will school supplies, like notepads, pencils and backpacks, and desks and chairs purchased with donations from our past guests. Join us on this cruise and help us as we get the children off to a great start for this school year. Bring your paint clothes. Paint and brushes will be provided.
Cruise West Guests Honored- March 27th departure
The Embera Village Chief will host a special dedication ceremony for three new Ranchos that were built in our honor. Ranchos are large, thatched-roofed gazebos used as shelter from the sun, wind or rain. The ranchos will be used especially to host Cruise West guests during the dance ceremonies that the Emberas delight in performing for us. You'll enjoy their friendly charm and may be wooed to join the dance.
