Container-house from Petaluma, California arrives in Barba Rubia

A friendly group of local businesspeople at Santa Maria Shipping Company, headed by Anastassios Markaronis from Petaluma in the San Francisco Bay Area, are helping the school of Barba Rubia by donating a fully-equipped trailer for use as a kindergarten unit at the Barba Rubia school.

This Saturday, July 10, Rotary Club La Reina Alta members and project volunteers will be on-site in Barba Rubia to inagurate the installation of the new classroom.
