We received this message from Stinapa, it might be nice if BT-ers on island May 29-th could join on this celebration day.


quote:

ANNUAL COMMEMORATION OF WASHINGTON PARK
To commemorate that the Washington Park was converted from a plantation to a national park we will have an annual day of festivities at the park.
On the 29th of May a day filled with activities will be organized in the park. As early as eight o’clock in the morning we will start with guided activities; we will follow the Kasicunda climbing trail to climb the 270ft Kasicunda hill and continue on to the Lagadishi walking trail. If this activity may sound too exhaustive there will be activities of lesser physical impact like strolling along the Lagadishi walking trail or a guided tour through the museum.

The children can participate also in the activities but must be accompanied by their parents or guardian. At the Visitor’s Center at the entrance of the park, there will be; treasure hunt, face painting, story telling and presentation of rhythmic poetry, painting and coloring projects and many other games for children.

From 8 o’ clock in the morning the people of the Rincon Market will delight the visitors with local food, cakes, handmade candies and cookies, arts and crafts at the Visitor’s Center at the entrance of the park.

In the afternoon Kaña Brabu will play live music from 1-5.
