Success for Tapa Route THE Rincon de la Victoria Tapa Route ended in suc‐ cess with €20,000 gener‐ ated, 5,376 tapas sold and up to 35 establish‐ ments participating in this edition. The mayor of Rincon de la Victoria Francisco Sala‐ do said: “We are more than satisfied with this first edition of the Ruta de la Tapa with this for‐ mat. Not only because of the volume of sales and the money generated for the establishments, but also because of the recep‐ tion it has had among businesses and residents who have enjoyed it.” The Liceo Playa restau‐ rant was the winner of €1,500 for first prize thanks to its Malaga goat cake with pistachio and goat’s milk curd with a Malaga wine gelee. The jury, made up of catering and gastronomy professionals, has consid‐ ered it worthy of the highest award for “its cre‐ ativity for the use of local products and the Malaga touches for the finish.”

TOTALAN STREAM: Has now shifted its course.
FASHION SHOW: The clothes then went on sale.
NERJA animal charity APAA has held a charity fashion show raising €3,400 for its new dog shelter and to support the charity’s work. The fashion show on Sunday, November 28 saw around 90 people buy tickets to the event at the Hotel Rural Almazara. Raising funds to create a new animal shelter in Nerja, APAA used clothes from its charity shop and local businesses to host a catwalk show, with attendees later able to buy the clothes modelled. Other clothes, shoes and accessories from APAA’s shop were also on sale, while €3.5 of every €15 ticket to the event went to the charity’s shelter campaign. Local businesses, including Seacrest Boarding Kennels for Cats and Dogs and Irish Annies also generously sponsored outfits and tickets, bringing the total
raised at the event to €3,400. APAA treasurer Sue Kiff said “I’d like to thank everyone involved, all the models for their expert modelling, everyone who came and supported us, all of our spon‐ sors, Hotel Almazara for hosting us, and most of all Kim Gray for organising the whole thing. “A great afternoon enjoyed by every‐ one.” Following the show, the charity has raised nearly €10,000 of its €200,000 goal to build a shelter in the Nerja area to look after homeless animals locally. After one donor generously offered be‐ tween €150,000 and €200,000 for a plot of land for the refuge, the animal charity is raising the funds to build the pens and infrastructure needed to house animals in Nerja.
AFTER nine years, Malaga and Rincon de la Victoria will fi‐ nally have their boundaries set after in 2012 the town boundaries were il‐ logically set back to those established in 1873 which then used the Totalan stream to mark the borderline. But, after a century and a half, the stream has naturally shifted its course and now runs slightly to the left, making the old boundary no longer applicable. With the Malaga and Rincon de la Vic‐ toria boundaries as they are this causes many problems to residents and local administrations.
The football pitch of La Cala del Moral is located in the capi‐ tal. In Calle Huelva, in the Calasol urbani‐ sation, there are 25 homes that pay their service rates to Mala‐ ga, and worse, there are neighbours of the same block that be‐ long to two different cities. The Plenary of the City Council of Rincon de la Victoria on Fri‐ day, November 26 unanimously ap‐ proved the proposal of the mayor to initi‐ ate the procedure for altering the munici‐ palities of Rincon de la Victoria and Mala‐ ga. In the Casona del Parque they also did so last week.
