When they got a feel of what was taking place they quickly got involved in the activities, despite intermittent rainfall.
Residents were entertained by popular comedians Berbician Linden “Jumbie” Jones and Kirk ‘Chow Pow’ Jordan.
During the promotion lucky resident received Tickets, T-Shirts, Horns, Flyers and Bumper stickers among other giveaways.
According to Imran Khan the ‘bring it’ bus tour manager, the promotion is being held in several countries in the Caribbean. He said the activity is being held to raise awareness of the ICC 20/20 cricket competition and build the hype in Guyana, who is one of the host venues.
