6th Guanacaste Classic Golf Tournament

For the sixth consecutive year, Reserva Conchal and Hacienda Pinilla organized the Guanacaste Classic Golf Tournament, under the modality of friendly tournament. In tune with a high social sensitivity, and following in the lines of the corporate social responsibility of both communities, this year’s event, which counted with the participation of 100 national and international golfers, was dedicated to the Santa Rosa, El Edén de Cartagena and Tempate de Santa Cruz CEN-CINAI.

The tournament, which took place on July 26-27 at Reserva Conchal and Hacienda Pinilla respectively, celebrated the act of delivery of the donation at the Guanacaste Classic party at the Reserva Conchal Beach Club. The check, by the amount of $10,000, was presented to Mrs. Zarai García, Director of the Santa Cruz CEN-CINAI and to Dr. Juan Luis Sánchez, Director of the Ministry of Health at Santa Cruz, by representatives of RC and Hacienda Pinilla respectively.

Mr. Carlos Hernández, Operations Manager of Reserva Conchal, and Mauricio Estrada, present the US$10,000 donation to Zarai García, Regional Director of the Santa Cruz CEN-CINAI and to Dr. Juan Luis Sánchez, Regional Director of the Ministry of Health at Santa Cruz.

“Reserva Conchal is a community known for its countless social and environmental efforts, which reiterate its commitment to its corporate social responsibility philosophy”, said Mr. Carlos Hernández, Reserva Conchal’s Operations Manager.

CEN-CINAI tends to over 1,000 pregnant and lactating mothers and to all children younger than 5 years old in a state of extreme poverty in the region. Every day, this center makes an enormous effort to feed mothers and infants and provide day-care services, for which they require food, educational materials and clothing. Such is the need that the demand for food is not currently being met.

Guanacaste Classic’s winner in the Professionals category was Roy Vargas, who won the last time in 2004.
