I am very excited to announce that the first meeting of MHTA, MEXICO for the HUMANE TREATMENT of ANIMALS is now scheduled for Saturday, June 27th, at 12 Noon in Mexicali. In order to avoid the risk of giving directions that will only confuse you, we're meeting between 11:30-11:45am in the parking lot of COSTCO in Mexicali. We will then caravan to the meeting location.

This is the first meeting of its kind in Baja. Hopefully, we will hold another meeting soon after in Rosarito, for the benefit of Ensenada, Tijuana and Tecate'. This first meeting will include members of ZAPP and GENTE POR LOS ANIMALES, a like minded group of animal advocates from Mexicali, and do the same kind of work as ZAPP.

Also, Shawn Santos, founder of HOPE ANIMAL NETWORK, a brand new social networking internet group, committed to the humane treatment of animals, will be there to present his video webcast that was shown on the internet June 2nd. At this first meeting we will do lots of brainstorming; we'll address EUTHANASIA without ELECTROCUTION, and discuss education for schools and the marketing of this new network group; all in an effort to increase awareness of MHTA's presence, and also with the goal of ultimately ending the inhumane treatment of animals in Mexico.

Please email me at bajaanimalrescue@yahoo.com as soon as possible, to let me know if this meeting is something you are planning to attend. You can also call me at 686-577-2708 or 044-686-190-3432. Thanks so much, Steven
