The much anticipated Linden Town Week of activities kicked off this weekend, with the ‘Teen Ambassadors” pageant at the Mackenzie Sports Club Ground, Saturday night.
Six students drawn from Secondary Schools across Linden vied for the title of ‘Teen Ambassador,” and preceded today’s official opening.
An official of the Linden Town Week Secretariat said that the decision was taken to host the event, after no proposal was forthcoming.
“We decided to do it, and so we involved the schools, and used some of the funds garnered from payments on activities to sponsor the girls.”
The Linden Town Week Pageant has over the years been one of the most anticipated events during the week of activities.
However this is the first time that all the delegates would be students from Secondary Schools.
‘King of Dancehall’, Beenie Man, is expected to stir things up some more, performing at the MSC Ground, immediately after the official opening ceremony slated for the Linden Georgetown bus park, tonight.
Dubbed ‘Dancehall vs Soca’, the show will also feature popular Deejays and the ‘Stitchie One-Man Band’.
Meanwhile dancehall artiste, Shenseea, and ‘Munga Honourable’, will be performing at the International Night Concert, slated for Tuesday at the said venue.
Gospel Fest, spelling and art competition, comedy night, karaoke competition finals, restaurant day, and the Rasville Dance Hall queen competition, and ‘flyovers’ also add to the week’s excitement.
Other eagerly anticipated signature events, include the Big Bold and Beautiful pageant, the
“All White” and “All Black” parties, L & L boat cruise, Gordon Moseley’s Big Man concept party, and Winston “Zar’ Ceasar’s “Green Scene” grown folks party.(Enid Joaquin)
