True Blue Summer News May 2010

Very Welcome Rain!
After the longest dry season we can remember Grenada is finally getting some rain this May. Our gardens are starting to look better and the whole of Grenada is getting back its lovely lush green look. The drought in the Eastern Caribbean islands this year was very severe, so we are extremely happy to have a bit of rain. If you are coming on holiday some time soon, don't worry, the rain only last for few minutes and then we have our much loved sunshine back. Unfortunately we have lost several trees to the drought; these will be replaced as soon as young trees are available from the local nursery.

Myles Pesky Friends Book Launch


Now available in Grenada:
“MYLES’ PESKY FRIENDS”

A tale of friendship, trust, and sharing. Set in Grenada, this kids book chronicles the
relationship between a four-year old boy, Myles, and the creatures with whom he
shares his Grenada vacation home. While Myles’ dad never quite understands the
nature of these friendships, he finally embraces Myles’ pesky friends when they
help the family through an unanticipated storm which interrupts their holiday.

Written by Brad Martin retired Chairman and CEO of retailer, Saks Incorporated.
During his 18 years as Chairman and CEO of Saks and its predecessor firm,
the company grew to become one of the largest retailers in the United States.
Martin also co-founded Corporate Child Care Solutions, which became
the leading employer-affiliated child care company in the U.S.
“My goal in writing MYLES’ PESKY FRIENDS was to bring attention and focus to
the wonderful country of Grenada. My family and I have greatly enjoyed our
experiences as part-time citizens and want to help tell the world about the special
people and places of Grenada”.

Mr. Martin lives with his wife and children in Tennessee and Grenada where he is
engaged in a variety of business and philanthropic activities.

All proceeds which (the Martin family and RIVR Media) generate from the sale
of MYLES’ PESKY FRIENDS in Grenada will be devoted to the expansion of the
