The 13th annual Spirit Of The Nation Show, coordinated by the Community Independence Celebrations Secretariat (CICS), will showcase the best community talent in dance, song, poetry and drama. It will be held under the theme From Country To Town, All Uh We Is One.

This year's parish talent will be keenly contested with Jada Holder flying the flag for St Joseph, Tiffany Forde representing St John, Vickie Butcher, St George and Diving Praise, St Thomas.

Other parish performers will be Keith Moore of St Michael; St Philip's Joseph Callendar; Alister Griffith of Christ Church; St Lucy's Lianne Hinds; Tyesha Clarke of St Peter; Trudi-Rose Brathwaite and Micah Humphrey of St James; and Kadeesha and Friends of St Andrew.

Twenty-two contestants will also vie for the Most Outstanding Parish Ambassadors crown.

They will appear onstage in costume and formal wear, and give oral presentations on their parish projects, which will focus this year on the theme The Environment - Towards A Greener Barbados.

Patrons are being urged to show their support for the parish ambassadors and the parish talent entrants by wearing their parish colours. (BGIS)
