Ms. Anning H. Smith Sr. from New Jersey wished to adopt one of our Aruban donkeys and name him after her husband: her eye was taken by Mikey, who will now be known as ‘Mikey Egon’. Mikey hasn’t been with us for long but already knows how pleasant it is to hang around the porch – sociable and sometimes delicious! the adoption is to be continued. Thank you very much Ms Anning Smith!
The adoption is renewed with another year till march 2009. Thank you!
Five years ago Steven Trigilio & Frank Reynolds from New Jersey adopted Rason for their friend Suzanne Thompson. They have renewed this gift every year and Rason is happy to have Suzanne as his adoptive Mom.
Jose Palomino, who changed places with his wife as a volunteer, has decided to adopt Negrita. This was a very logical choice as he was on duty May 29th when Negrita into the world. It is very nice to have such enthousiastic volunteers!
Baccha will undergo a name-change: his new name is Freezone. The donkey will be the mascot of the kids and will be dressed in green and grey from now on. A filly-sized halter will be custom- made anyway, so why not in the colors of the baseball team. Freezone’s new favorite sport is, of course, baseball.
Freezone is adopted by Free Zone Aruba since June 17, 2004
Thank you very much
