Out Here.

Exactly one week to the World Cup. Mexico is hosting, which means the corridor is about to get loud in all the right ways. Look for the poll a bit further down to help build a master list of where everyone is watching.

It is a good week to pass the link on to a neighbor so they can weigh in. And as always, if you have something for the board, get it in.

Here is what’s up for the week.

✦   Quick question / Una pregunta rápida   ✦

Where are we watching the World Cup?

The World Cup kicks off next Thursday, and there is nothing quite like the collective energy of a local spot when the first whistle blows.

I am putting together a community master list of where everyone is heading to catch the matches. Whether you have a favorite neighborhood haunt with the best screen or a secret spot you are willing to share with the rest of us, I want to know.

Please take a moment to drop your plans in this quick poll so I can share the local favorites in next week’s dispatch.

Where are you watching the 2026 World Cup? / ¿Dónde vas a ver la Copa Mundial 2026?

Let us make sure no one misses the kickoff.

Community Note

Looking Out for Local Paws. As the midday sun gets serious, the ground here is heating up fast. A quick reminder that afternoon sand can severely blister a dog’s paws. If the beach is too hot for your bare feet, it is definitely too hot for them, so save the coastal walks for early mornings or late evenings. And for the street dogs making their rounds without a shaded patio to retreat to, leaving a clean bowl of water outside your gate goes a long way right now. Keep an eye out for them.

Our Region, Our Future: A Community Conversation

Other Community Notice / Otro Anuncio Comunitario  •  Teatro-Cine General Manuel Márquez

Our region is growing fast, and that growth is starting to show up everywhere including water, roads, and how development is managed. Right now, many of the decisions shaping this area are made in La Paz.

Para Todos BCS is hosting a couple of open community sessions to talk about what local governance could look like for the Pacific South. It is not a proposal or a campaign. It is a space to listen, share ideas, and ask questions about where things are headed.

They will be held at the Teatro-Cine General Manuel Márquez, right across from the plaza:

Spanish Session: Thursday, June 4 at 5:30 PM
English Session: Friday, June 5 at 5:30 PM
