[News Boquete] Happy New Year 2025 DogCamp Boquete 501c3 Foundation


As the year comes to a close, we want to remind you just how vital end-of-year giving is to a nonprofit like DogCamp Boquete.
Thanks to your generosity, DogCamp Boquete provided shelter, care, and love to over 550 dogs each year. Your donations ensure these animals receive critical medical care, spay / neuter and are prepared for adoption into loving homes. Without your support, we couldn't offer the lifesaving services so many animals desperately need.
End-of-year giving is a powerful way to set DogCamp up for success in the new year. It's also a wonderful opportunity to embrace the holiday spirit by supporting causes you care about deeply.
Interested in making a difference? Click here https://www.paypal.com/donate/... to donate today. In addition to monetary contributions, you can also support local animals by fostering, volunteering, sponsoring, or donating physical items.
Contact us
Your gift doesn't just benefit DogCamp – it can also help you! Donations made by December 31, 2024, may qualify as tax-deductible for the 2024 tax year, also qualify to attend the big Puppy Love Luau Party.
Every contribution, big or small, transforms the lives of animals waiting for their second chance. Please consider donating today and giving the gift of hope and a brighter future.
552 animals helped during 2024!
135 Rescued animals
51 Animals that were helped and they had owners, but they didn't have the resources to help their own pets (surgeries at the border, medical attention, medicines, dog food, vaccines, etc.)
324 Animals spayed and neutered
42 Adopted pets
Happy New Year 2025

[News Boquete] Delicious Meals at Unbeatable Prices


 

 

 

Take a break from the kitchen and let the 2 Guys & A Cooler team do the cooking for you.  We offer a vast and dynamic menu with a little something for everyone.  Thai, Chinese, Mexican, American Comfort Food, Italian Dishes, Vietnamese, and so much more!!  At 2 Guys & A Cooler we subscribe to the Large/Small philosophy, LARGE portions small prices😉.  Be a part of the Panama Food Club experience. 

 

To get on our weekly email notification list, click here:  Weekly Email Sign Up Form

 

To be a part of the exclusive Panama Food Club experience, you can sign up and check out our menu here:

2 Guys & A Cooler – We Cook, So You Don't Have To (doshombrespanama.com)

 

 

This week we've added our Steak and Loaded Baked Potato cream soup to the menu.  A creamy soup with tender cubed steak that embodies the spirit of a loaded baked potato.  Cheddar cheese, sour cream, bacon, butter, and baked potatoes are just a few of the ingredients. 

Last week we polled our customers to see what Asian dish they would like to see on the menu.  The choices were Mongolian Beef, Chinese Beef & Broccoli, or Teriyaki Stir Fry.  The teriyaki beef won with the most votes.  If you like tender beef Asian dishes then this teriyaki beef is right up your alley.  Meat so tender you'll never believe that it's local 100% grass fed beef.  Each portion has close to 1.5 pounds of food and can easily feed 1-2 adults.  Serve by itself, with rice, or noodles (rice and noodles not included). 

   

 

Are you into fermented foods?  This week we have authentic Korean Kimchi available as well as Cultured Buttermilk and Kefir.  Kimchi is considered by many to be amongst the healthiest foods on the planet.  Our Naturally fermented Kimchi is loaded with gut friendly probiotics and delivers on flavor (not very spicy).    

 

We also have Spinach & Artichoke dip back on the menu.  This dish is not only perfect for any gathering it's also very versatile.  You can add it to a baked potato or steamed vegetables, use it to stuff a pork chop or a chicken breast.  I can't wait to hear how you enjoy this dish!!

 

Do you like sausage?  This week we've made Chicken & Apple Breakfast Sausage, Mexican Chorizo, Mild Medium and Spicy Breakfast Sausage, as well as our signature Hot Italian sausage.  These tend to sell out pretty fast so if you don't see them in the "Sausage" section of our menu it means they've already been scooped up.

 

If you want something different for dessert, try our new cheesecake creation, the Peppermint Bark Cheesecake!!  This cake is not only visually stunning as it's swirled like a peppermint but its bursting with peppermint flavor and topped with a white chocolate peppermint ganache and crumbled peppermints.  I was hoping to make the Andes Chocolate Cheesecake this week as well but I ran out of time😅.  I'll have that one on the menu next week.

 

Other dishes available this week are Beef Stroganoff, Mexican Shredded Beef Enchiladas, Southern Pot Roast, Buttery Grits with cheddar, New Orleans Red Beans and Andouille Sausage, Black Eyed Peas and Ham, Cream of Bratwurst Stew, Mexican Tortilla Soup, Thai Chicken Panang, Mac & Cheese, Loaded Baked Potato,  and LOTS more!!!

 

Thanks for reading and we look forward to serving you soon

Eric, Cecelia, Chandler, Keira, Aidan

[News Boquete] Air Panama will Resume Flights from David to San Jose

REPRINTED FROM NEWSROOM PANAMA

Air Panama will Resume Flights to San José, Costa Rica in the First Quarter of 2025

With the acquisition of two new Dash 8-Q400 aircraft, the airline hopes to expand its domestic flight operations and resume the route between David and San José, Costa Rica, with a connection also in Panama.

Air Panama hopes to resume flights between the city of David in Chiriquí and San José, Costa Rica, in the first quarter of 2025, revealed Eduardo Stagg, commercial manager, noting that they have an expansion plan, reinforced by the acquisition of new aircraft.  "Two new aircraft will be added to the service next year and we have plans to open a new route between San José, Costa Rica, to David, and with a connection to Panama City, and we believe that this will benefit the increase in tourism to Panama".  The new aircraft are two Bombardier Dash 8 Q400s with capacity for 76 passengers that were operated by an Alaska Air subsidiary, Horizon Air. 

These aircraft, now in the hands of Air Panama, arrived in the country in September of this year 2024 and are being painted and conditioned. In addition, they must process the certificates and documents so that they can be operated in the country by the airline based at the Marcos A. Gelabert Airport in Albrook.  Stagg said that for now they do not have any flights planned to Colombia, however they are open to operating charter flights to various destinations.  He said that in 2024 they recorded an increase in flight occupancy on routes operating to Chitré, Bocas del Toro, Changuinola and David, in addition to some charter flights.  They currently operate three Fokker aircraft, each with a combined capacity of 150 seats. With the arrival of the two Dash 8 aircraft, they will be able to offer 152 additional seats for travel, in addition to the service with a Cessna Grand Caravan for 7 to 9 passengers.

[News Boquete] The Handicap Thrift Store closed this coming Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday

    Dear All:

    Due to the extensive preparation for our Christmas party and the grand Christmas fiesta on Saturday, the staff and volunteers of the Boquete Handicap Foundation (FPI) need time to regroup, reorganize the thrift store, and spend time with their families. Therefore we will be closed the two days before Christmas and (of course) Christmas Day. Here's a few photos of our crew wrapping gifts and filling goodie bags for our handicapped members.
