Great news for Connections

Connections Gemstones

Connections band leader Mervyn Skeete is pleased with the news that from placing second in the "B" band category, Connections will be promoted to the "A" division for 2010. As a result of this, Connections would be no lower than the 8th position in the parade, and possibly earlier. Mervyn says that being lower that 8th (in the parade) had a direct effect on registration. He also commented that hopefully they will have better crowd control next year, (from being within the first 8 bands) which will permit masqueraders to better enjoy themselves.
As well, to all those unfortunate masqueraders whose band will not be going to Barrie's Caribfest, Mervyn says they are welcome to jump with us, not a problem.
