CASA Gets a New Board
The Coronado Area Social Association (CASA) voted in a new all-volunteer board for 2012. The association which was formed in 2005 was originally called the Coronado Social Association (CSA). It was started as a means for English speaking expats to meet and socialize. The organization changed its name last year to be more inclusive of surrounding beach neighborhoods. Since it's inception, the organization's social agenda included raising funds for worthy local causes. The CASA organizes and runs several annual events at the beaches: Chili Cook-Off, Beach Picnic, Craft Fair and Christmas Dance. Apart from that, they also maintain a Book Exchange, which is located at El Litoral Bed & Breakfast in the Coronado Area. Over the years, the organization has donated funds to a number of causes including, an orphanage, distribution of food baskets to the poor, distribution of care packages to new mothers in need and educational programs for local children. CASA maintains a mailing list and sends out useful information to their membership. For more information about CASA does or to become a member email csa2008p@gmail.com
