The Mudpack Festival of our premiere tourist destination, Mambukal Resort was a roaring success. My pack of friends from abroad included NGO German puppeteer Alex Nast from Dresden, Germany and Guam natives, Jeff Sanchez and Guy Mosley. They were enthralled with the tribes of sexy, mud painted bodies that graced the occasion. There were headdresses, g-strings, drums and dances galore while the convention hall was filled with ecological themed sculptures and paintings done on the spot for a wildly contested prize for the year’s festivities. Bravo to the Mambukal Resort Security Team headed by EXECOM Henry Aggari who promptly produced a certification letter for my insurance company stating that my car’s roof was hit by a fallen branch of an old tree. And I didn’t even ask for it! Mr. Aggari just told me to wait for a letter, which I thought was another promotional flyer for the resort. It was only at home when I opened it did I realize what the letter was all about. Now, that’s what I call professionalism.
