This not a religious presentation. John, a founder of the Boquete Hospice and Health Foundation, is a spiritual teacher and counselor who has lived in Boquete for 12 years.
May 1: The return of Ryan Grassley, Half Throttle. A ride from Las Olas to the top of Volcan Baru about 70 minutes of video not to be missed. Ryan's last presentation was a full house I expect this one to fill also. We will have a better sound system this time.
