Tomorrow marks the last day of Breast Cancer Awareness month and hence marks the last day of activities that the National Cancer Society of Providenciales has embarked on during the month of October, which is mammography clinics for all residents who want to get a mammogram at the Myrtle Rigby Health Complex in Providenciales on the 30th and 31st. However, do not let tomorrow be the last day you think about cancer including victims of cancer, survivors and even ways and means of detecting cancer at an early stage. This should be an ongoing concern for every one.

The National Health Insurance Plan (NHIP)
The newest discussion in the Turks and Caicos Islands is the National Health Insurance Plan (NHIP). If you are thinking of coming to the islands to work here or to retire in your newely purchased condo or home, this is something that you should read up on. Here is the link www.tcinhip.tc .
North West Point Resort
North West Point Resort is one of the many developments on Providenciales. It is located on the North West shores of the island, just steps away from the world’s third largest reef system hence offering great snorkeling for the adventurous person and a white sandy beach perfect for the one who just want to relax and enjoy the breeze, sand and sun.
At the resort, you can find rental accommodation of one, two and three spacious Caribbean theme suites all with a private patio, and also have the option of purchasing if you so choose. In my opinion, I find that compared to many other developments, this resort have favourable sale prices and is something that you should consider when looking for real estate in Providenciales. NorthWest Point Resort is a full service resort for ultimate in relaxation and comfort.
Interested in purchasing opportunities at the NorthWest Point Resort, contact one of National Colony Realty able real estate agents for information.

Richmond Hills Commons Land - Price Reduction
Price Reduction to $250,000
Today we have just reduced a ridge lot in the area of Richmond Hills Commons to $250,000, as the owner is motivated to sell. This property has beautiful ocean views of the North Shore and is centrally located. i.e. within close proximity to one of the biggest grocery stores “IGA Supermarket” on the island, close to schools, gas station, movie cinema and direct excess to the main Leeward Highway. Ideal for a dwelling home in a new and upcoming subdivision in Providenciales.
What makes this property so desirable other than the already existing top class homes that have just been recently built is the fact that the home owners association is up and operational and they have invested much time and efforts in the upkeep of the subdivision making it a desirable location to make your home.

Provo Ponies
I cannot stop saying that the Turks and Caicos Islands is an excellent place to visit on vacation and also make your home way from home. Even though it is small and does not have all activities like bowling etc to occupy your time, we have so many natural things that you can engage in that is just as exciting, which I have blog about from time to time. Today I present to you another leisure activity in Turks and Caicos, i.e. horseback riding with the Provo Ponies.
Available are morning and afternoon rides for riders of all levels of experience. Provo Ponies can accommodate up to 12 riders of all degrees of experience at a time. The horses are calm and traffic sound. The standard trail rides are guided 1 hour or 1.5 hour rides which goes along the secluded Long Bay Beach. Long pants and full shoes are recommended that you wear and taxi service can be provided from your hotel of stay if need be.
