During the month of June, Tourism Corporation Bonaire (TCB) honored eight visitors as Bonaire Ambassadors. These honors were awarded in the bronze, gold, and platinum categories.
Paul and Deborah Richer have been visiting Bonaire for 10 consecutive years. They are part of a diving group that visits the island annually. The award ceremony took place at Habitat Bonaire, where Claire Thielman-Sealy presented the bronze pins to our ambassadors.
Uschi and Frank Frosin from Germany were honored for visiting our island for 12 years; they, too, received a bronze pin for the occasion.
Charles and Barbara Gempler from the United States have been visiting Bonaire for 20 years. Consequently, they received a gold pin, reflecting the duration of their visits to the island.
The Gromotka-Pourier couple from Rincon surprised their Dutch friends, Jack and Riet Janssen, by nominating them for this recognition. The Dutch couple has been visiting Bonaire for 31 years, particularly during the San Juan and San Pedro festivities. They love Bonairean culture and the traditions in Rincon that celebrate and preserve this culture. On behalf of TCB, Helen Mercera presented them with a beautiful clock featuring historical images of Bonaire.
TCB congratulates all the visitors who received this honor and thanks them for choosing Bonaire as the destination for their unforgettable stays.
