Re: MAUSICA ALLUMNI AWARD OF MERIT

I say a loud AMEN to Anna Maria's message. I am still wearing my ID bracelet... let's have a contest to see who can keep theirs on till Grenada 2007... those who know me better will understand that colour coordination is not a big concern with me! Tomorrow is Cudjoe Head day in my village so there will be lots of activities from 6am. The unrelenting noise of the too loud music tends to keep me away except for a few minutes at a time. We acknowledged Emancipatipon day on August first but there will be a Public holiday on Monday.
I am in a small minority who feel strongly that August 1st and May 1st shoulkd never be interfered with... whatever day of the week they fall on. How do Mausicans feel about this? Must share with you that the presence of Alphonsus Antoine at his first ever reunion event truly warmed my heart and I'm so happy we chose Grenada!

Have been n Tortola, BVI since the reunion. The island is in the throes of their carnival celebrations, but my heart is still with the reunion. The highlight of my reunion 2007 was socialising - I met many amazing Mausicans for the first time, reconnected with some whom I had not seen since 1965 (and allyuh still lookin good - hats off to Mrs. Massish's and Mr. Julien's nutritious meals) and continued bonding with those with whom I am in contact. Glenda and Judith Lewis brought me back to memories of my childhood and I thank them for that. I would love to spend time talking with more people when we meet in Grenada. Thanks to the Canadian Connection for recognising me with an award - that wasindeed a surprise. Errol, you were undoubtedly our favourite when we decided to honour one of our own - congrats. To the organising committee of Rendezvous 2007 - your hard work paid off. Ah had ah ball. To my roommates at the house in Bon Accord - it was like old times in the hostel. Mennen, you could real lime gyul. Allan and Cynthia Clovis you provided me with the most emotionally rewarding experience of all of the Mausica reunions that I attended. It was so fulfilling to sit in a circle and share experiences with the Pioneers - an encore will be welcome in Grenada. I am sure that the Canadian Connection will be assisting behind the scenes with the Grenada celebration. Tobago was nice, but Grenada will be spicey.
