Christmas House Competition & Calasparra Trip

The Town Hall of Zurgena is promoting a new competition for the most attractively decorated Christmassy house in the municipality.

If you wish to enter the competition please register either through me or in the Town Hall before the 23rd December.

The winner will receive a Christmas Hamper



Over 70 of the residents of Zurgena took part in the Town Hall trip to Calasparra yesterday. We visited the very interesting Rice Museum and heard the history of Calasparra from 12,000 years ago to dat. Next we visited the stunning Sanctuary of Virgen de la Esperanza (which has connections with the one at Saliente) where we also had lunch. After lunch we visited the Cueva del Puerto and walked along 1 of the 6 kilometres of underground passaged through the stalactite and stalagmite filled caves. Unfortunately were prohibited from taking photos inside the caves. Tow of the pictures are of the oldest piece of machinery from the Rice farming as it was made (as many things were) by an English company from Wisbech!
