Black Point Settlement, Exuma – 24°05.87'N, 76°24.02'W

Most cruisers of the Exumas stop and visit Black Point. Some stop for a day for laundry, showers and libations, others spend more time there, exploring and becoming part of the community.

Black Point has a school with students from PreK (just started last year) to grade 9.

We have a simple way to show our thanks to this very hospitable, cruiser friendly community by improving their school.

Here are some suggestions:

-any type of school supplies

-educational books suitable for pre k to grade nine

-Educational toys for pre K

-for those with room aboard small play rugs, type with roads or letters or numbers.

-if someone has a spare one, a flat screen 24"tv or a dvd player

On arrival contact Ida Patton (owner rockside laundry and PTA member).

If you want more info, feel free to email me, bvander66@hotmail.com

Thanks
