….GT&T main sponsor
“The Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club is the only youth and sports club in Guyana to publish an annual review magazine and to do so for thirteen successive years is a remarkable achievement that should be applauded.” Those were the words of Club’s Secretary/CEO Hilbert Foster during the official launching of their 13th Annual Youth Review Magazine at the St. Francis Training Centre on Thursday last.
Keith Foster presents Ms. Beverly Harper with the first copy of the Review Magazine.
The 44-page Magazine was printed at the F&H Printery in Georgetown and reviews the works of the club during the period, January 2012 – May 2013. Foster who served as the Magazine’s Editor-in-Chief stated it includes remarks from the President, Secretary and Patron of the club; thirty-two articles on programmes done by the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club; profiles of its various cricket teams and a 7-page pictorial review.
It also has articles on the Test debut of Assad Fudadin for the West Indies and the record breaking international century by West Indies Female cricketer Shemaine Campbelle against Sri Lanka.
The magazine would be distributed free of cost across Guyana, the Caribbean and North America. Foster expressed the hope that it would inspire other youth and sporting organisations to follow the outstanding work of the RHTY&SC.
Some of the areas that the leading local club focuses on are: sports, pro-education, charity, anti-drugs, youth and community development, religious, awards and personal development.
The long serving Secretary/CEO notes that much more needs to be done for youth and sports development and is calling on all clubs and NGOs to redouble their efforts to make positive differences.
Foster expressed gratitude to the Guyana Telephone & Telegraph Company for being the main sponsor of the 2013 Magazine and praised the telephone giant for its support of the club over the past twenty years.
He singled out for special mention, GT&T’s Ms. Sonia Jagan, Ms. Allison Parker and Ms. Faye Wharton for their co-operation in making the magazine possible.
Club President, Keith Foster noted that they believe strongly in accounting for the work they do and the magazine was part of its effort to keep the general public and official sponsor informed.
He informed that the work of the club has been documented since the year 2000 and called on other organisations do the same. The elder Foster officially launched the magazine by handing over a copy to Ansa McAl’s Managing Director Ms. Beverley Harper who is also the Patron of the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club.
