Cultural feast in The City

Date:

Share post:

EVEN THOUGH THE parade numbers were small, they still managed to generate a big buzz from the thousands of spectators lining the streets of Bridgetown yesterday for the First Citizens Bank Crop Over City Fest & Ceremonial Delivery Of The Last Canes parade.

With a prompt 3:30 p.m. start, the parade from Cheapside Post Office to Independence Square, was led off by the sponsor’s truck with staff, friends and dancers in the colours of the bank and bearing the banner, We Put Culture First.

Without the Barbados Cheerleading Federation of seven schools and two clubs, the parade would only have had the usual suspects of the Barbados Landship Association and the 31-member Sons of God Apostolic Church.

Please read the full story in today’s Sunday Sun, or in the eNATION edition.
