The Prime Minister called the General Elections on the same day as the scheduled Municipal Elections.

Over 300 kids were present on the afternoon of December 22, 2011 to enjoy the party presented by the Xaibe Country Club and others who helped.

A team of 20 professionals and volunteers from the Rayjon Share Care program from Canada were in Corozal in November of 2011 providing services and glasses for the people of the Corozal District. Dozens of local Rotarians and volunteers assisted to make the project successful.

"According to legend, the world will end in 2012 because the ancient Maya calendar, which spans 5,000 years, mysteriously ends on Dec. 21."

Great for Hollywood and tourism, but not so mysterious. 21 December will this year will mark the end of the Long Count, so it's something like our calendar going from the year 1999 to 2000.

But numerous tourism-oriented events will be scheduled, including a concert, light show, and fire ceremony at the ruins of Xunantunich on 21 Dec.
