Culturama postponed

Sadly, because of the inclement weather for the entire day yesterday (August 2) officials for the Nevis Culturama Committee decided to cancel the parade of troupes that was scheduled to hit the streets of downtown Charlestown. In spite of the rain, lots of people had already come out to witness the parade, and others ready to jump and wave were already in their costumes.
However, according to the organizers, their main concern was the children, and they were therefore forced to make the decision to postpone the Delta Petroleum Cultural Street Parade until this Friday, August 5 2011.
The inclement weather was as a result of Tropical Storm Emily that by-passed the Leeward Islands and left behind heavy rainfall in its wake.
Although the day turned out to be a disappointment for many, especially those who had traveled over to Nevis, some people still managed to enjoy themselves jamming in the rain to the sounds of the bands and Hi-Fi?s that were on the streets. Yesterdays parade, along with the last lap jam session, was supposed to bring the 2011 Culturama events to an end.
