Courts takes Christmas lighting to Essequibo

Nov 21, 2009 News

The highly anticipated traditional Courts Christmas light up, on Thursday, ventured to the Essequibo Coast, with much delight to Essequibians who turned up in their numbers to participate in the day’s fun filled activity.
The actual lighting up was done by one of Essequibo’s regular customer Mrs. Ivy Durga.
The simple ceremony took place at Richmond Outlet and as is mandatory, the programme unfolded with the distribution of gifts to vulnerable children from Danielstown and Sparta respectively.
These gifts were presented to the most vulnerable by Courts Executive Team that travelled to the Coast for that special occasion.
The team comprised Operational Manager- Miss Lavern Barker, Finance Controller – Steve Nauth, Purchasing Director, Clyde Daahal, and Customer Services Executive – Mr. Raul Dundas. Also present at the ceremony were Region Two Vice Chairman – Mr. Vishnu Samaroo, both Santa and Mrs Claus and his team, which also included Mickey Mouse.  The main feature of the actual lighting up of the Courts Xmas Tree started at around 5:30 p.m.
The first segment in the prize-giving exercise afforded Essequibians to win prizes in the $1.5M giveaway.  Customers had to first make a purchase of over $30,000 before being eligible for that entry.
There was the recitation of prayers by representatives of the three major religious bodies—Christian, Muslim and Hindu faiths.
In his brief remark, Vice Chairman Mr. Samaroo first congratulated Courts on its traditional feature and alluded to the great benefit and great impact that entity continues to have on customers’ life.
Mr. Daahal, Purchasing Director, thanked customers for their purchases throughout the year. He also spoke about the company’s gratitude in giving back to the Guyanese society, especially in their recent venture where Courts helped to install libraries in schools countrywide.
The Courts Stash of Cash promotion continues throughout the year. This venture allows customers with every purchase of over $5,000 to win a total of $32M in cash.
