Hello everyone!!!

I just want to say thank you for putting your trust in me as the new President of Vecinos. A new era of unity and accomplishment has begun. Over the coming months, I will keep you informed via emails, the website, the president’s blog and president’s briefs about our progress on all the activities and projects we have planned. I plan to be very active in communicating with the entire Akumal Norte community, Vecinos members and non-members alike.

As I said at the Annual Meeting, our priority is building our membership. Increasing our membership will give us the power to complete all the projects that we are planning over the next year. I am actively working on a membership survey that will be available to all of you very soon. Please take the time to complete it when it’s announced – it is very important for defining our future plans.

Another very important need is re-engaging in improving the image of our community. Some renters have complained specifically of overgrown vegetation in Pablo Bush Park, so I went out with my gardener this Saturday to clear up trash and other debris in the area. 

I encourage each of you to take the initiative on this challenge, as well. If you see trash, please pick it up! If there’s an overgrown area close to you, I challenge you to help make it cleaner! If we all work together, we can accomplish great things. I will be implementing community cleanup days in the coming months and I hope you will be willing to join. And if you’re out of town, we could always use the help of your gardener/maintenance worker.

With my best regards,

Ricardo Mangione
