Jo Melville, the organizer of the event, said she was very pleased with the turnout and the money raised. 'We all know how the crisis is affecting everyone in Spain, especially people in our town.', she said 'So it is quite an achievement to have raised so much money for our dogs'. Jo went on to thank all the many volunteers who had contributed to the show’s success.

Another successful fair for ADANA

ADANA held its annual Christmas Fair at the Estepona Palacio de Congresos on Sunday, 25 November 2012.

There were over seventy stalls offering a variety of merchandise, much with a Christmas theme. Particularly successful were the ADANA Christmas cards with photos of ADANA dogs by the internationally-renowned animal and landscape photographer Geoff Simpson, who has offered his services to prepare a range of other exclusive merchandise such as calendars, all featuring dogs in the ADANA kennels in Parque de los Pedregales.

Michael Barry, well-known local author and historian, gave an illustrated talk to a packed audience at the Estepona Palacio on the history of the Islamic presence in Al Andalus.

The event, which was chaired by ADANA Vice-President Mary Page, raised over 500 euros for ADANA and Michael generously donated five of his books to be sold at a discounted price, proceeds also to go to our animal shelter.

The talk was very much enjoyed and those present were able to enjoy a drink and tapas and talk to Michael afterwards.

It is hoped that many similar events of a cultural nature could be organised in future...anyone with ideas for musical, historical or literary events should contact ADANA on 667-234-592.

Thanks to all who helped organise the event with special thanks to Sonia and Hermione Longman.

The summer dinner party in a private garden in Estepona was well attended and raised over 2,000 euros for ADANA.
