| As the
only dedicated English language newspaper in Mazatlán, the Pacific
Pearl is often asked by readers about upcoming events in our city.
We are sometimes unable to answer your questions as many promoters
do not announce international events until one or two weeks before
they are to take place, even if they are planned well in advance.
As a monthly magazine, we are either informed of events past deadline
date, or not at all. In our continuing effort to provide up-to-date
information to our readers, the Pacific Pearl delivered the following
letter to event and convention promoters. (In Spanish) |

|
| Dear Sir, |
| Please permit
me to introduce myself. My name is Michael Veselik. I am the publisher
of the English language monthly news magazine in Mazatlán called “Mazatlán´s
Pacific Pearl.” We have published our magazine in Mazatlán since 1992. |
| |
| Our readers
are English speaking visitors and residents of Mazatlán who are interested
in international events taking place in our city. Unfortunately, many
of them are unable to read Spanish and therefore are unaware of announcements
of events which appear in your paper & advertisements. |
|
| We believe
in communities working together to the benefit of Mazatlán. With that
in mind, we would like to publish announcements of international events
in English for our readers. For instance, our readers are interested in
the Marathon, the Triathalon, Fishing Tournaments, Golf & Tennis Tournaments,
the Yoreme Festival, the International Film Festival and Arts Festivals.
We found that publishing events taking place in Mazatlán months in advance
allows our readers to plan their holiday to include, or participate in,
the events. This is good for Mazatlán, and good for the sponsors of the
events. |
|
| We would
be grateful if you could forward advance notices of international events
to us for publication in our monthly magazine. We will also post the events
on our Pacific Pearl Magazine Website, which receives over 3.3 million
hits a year. Together we can work for the betterment of Mazatlán and our
tourism industry. I welcome your comments on this suggestion and look
forward to hearing from you. |

Yours
sincerely, |
