In her welcome address, Chairperson of the Carnival Planning & Management Committee, Ms. Tamara Gibson, commended sponsors on their contributions to the development of the pageant and its delegates. She also noted additions to this year’s journey “We’re focusing on sustainability and working with other partners and sponsors to ensure that our 7 delegates can leave a lasting impact throughout this season through environmentally friendly exercises like tree-planting and visiting schools during reading month and the schools tour. This pageant is more than beauty. It’s about touching lives and literally making the world a greener, better place.”
Following the sashing, the delegates will now become ambassadors for their brands. Sponsors arrange various sessions to give delegates an insight into their business, including tours of their facilities.
