St. Croix: DG Banquet








The DG Banquet was a great time to have a nice dinner, speeches by District 7020 DG Rupert Ross, awards & recognition and socializing. We were able to meet many people that we had not had the chance to over the past few weeks and from islands in the district that we did not visit including Jamaica, Bahamas, D.R. & Haiti. It was so wonderful to meet everyone at the conference and to once again see our new friends from Tortola, St. Thomas, St. John, St. Maarten, St. Martin, Anguilla that we have met along the way and we were able to share our experiences since we saw them last. It was also time to say goodbye to those who were finished with the conference training and heading back to their islands.

St. Croix: Home Hospitality Night & Caribbean Cultural Extravaganza






St. Croix entertained us with Home Hospitality Night & Caribbean Crucian Cultural Extravaganza. Both evenings gave us a chance to mingle with everyone and experience the Caribbean culture, music, dance and food. Cultural night featured a steel drum band of young high school students, dancers, jumbies-stilt dancers, fire eater & limbo dancing.
