Festival Fiesta for the KidsThis Week’s Feature Story

Director and Kiddies Fiesta PR Committee Chair said,

“The Kiddies Fiesta promises to be good uplifting fun

again this year. The parade will be colorful and enter-

taining as usual, and there will be lots of games and

entertainment.”

She added, “All proceeds of the Fiesta will go to

support Youth and Health related programs and char-

ities. These areas are a continual focus for The Rotary

Club of Road Town as we believe they are key to creat-

ing and sustaining peaceful, happy communities. This

year's Rotary International theme of ‘Peace through

Service’ reflects the organization's ongoing commit-

ment to humanitarian actions on every scale and we

believe that providing a safe, fun outlet for the chil-

dren to fully participate in Festival activities is entirely

in keeping with that mission.”

This year, the Rotary Club of Road

Town is hoping to donate another

much needed dialysis machine to

Peebles Hospital.

So, do something special for the

kids this festival weekend, help a good

cause and join in the fun and make this

Kiddies Fiesta an event to remember.

One of the highlights of festival, and a special

treat for the kids is the 19th annual Kiddies Fiesta,

Parade and Fun Day! Organized by the Rotary Club of

Road Town, the fiesta starts at 10am on Saturday,

28th July at Noel Lloyd Positive Action Movement

Park. All of your children’s favorite costumed charac-

ters will be there including Dora, Elmo, Barney and

Sponge Bob plus music from Showtime Band, DJ

Push Pop and other entertainers to keep the party

lively.

There will also be a Kiddies Parade that is slated

to start at 10:30am, and the organizers are excited

this year as many more children are expected to take

part than in previous years. There will be lots of

games and activities to enjoy including bouncy cas-

tles, face-painting, dance performances, water

games and much more. However,

this is not just an event for the kids it

is for the entire family ¬– and adults

are encouraged to get involved in

some of the fun activities as well!

Local food and drink will also be in

plentiful supply!

Ask Koren

Your personal E-therapist, is in the house!Modeling Over A Real Career

Send your questions confidentially [email protected] or via twitter at @korennorton

Dear Koren,

I am scratching my head with frustration. My 18

year old daughter got a summer modeling job and I

was proud of her. Now she is talking about not want-

ing to go to college to study Communications any-

more because the guy she works with is telling her

she can get constant gigs. Just the fact that she is

using the word “gigs” to describe work is really turn-

ing me off. Should I forbid her from modeling again or

go to the guy who hired her and ask him to let her go?

I want her to follow her dream of being a professional

newscaster. –Mother

Dear Mother,

I get the impression you and your daughter are

close and you are regretting your decision to let her

model. This is something you and her have to work on

together, but approaching the employer is inappropri-

ate because she is legally an adult and he does not

seem to be taking advantage of her.

It sounds like your daughter likes professions that

puts her in the limelight, and with modeling, she is

still in front of the camera. Talk with her about her

dreams and help her to figure out if she can do both.

It is important that she understands not only the ben-

efits, but also the downsides of modeling. Explain to

her that while modeling seems glamorous and excit-

ing now, it can be a dog-eat-dog environment,

chances of success are limited the older you get and

there might not be a lot of opportunity for her to use

her brain as much as she will be using her body.

Teenagers go through phases and make changes

very easily based on what they deem to be popular

and what will elevate their status in the eyes of their

peers. Think of the reasons why she wanted to be a

newscaster before and appeal to those dreams. It

cannot be just about what you want or what you think

is suitable, but rather helping her to take a more long

term approach to her decisions.

Whatever decision she comes to, do not allow a

difference in perspective to affect your mother-daugh-

ter relationship, because she will need your support

in whatever field of work she chooses.

Feathered Friends

The BVI is for the birds! Our feathered friends have

recently been highlighted in a photo contest in a local

newspaper and this undoubtedly drew attention to

many rarely seen species. I often carry a camera on my

many jaunts around the islands and birds certainly

make for interesting and unusual pictures. Once a

booby, complete with freshly caught a fish in its beak,

landed on the bow pulpit of a yacht I was helming. I

captured a half dozen shots of it as it went through the

process of first crushing the fish, aligning it for swal-

lowing and then seeing it slide down the gullet, all

while balancing on the pitching bow. A few seconds

later it flew off with a gratified expression.

Seabirds, of course, are all around us in our island

environment. Frigate birds wheel high above the

ocean looking for unwary fish swimming too close to

the surface. Laughing gulls seem just as happy

scrounging for scraps from yachts as they do search-

ing for minnows or other

minute marine life. They’re

certainly prettier than their

larger northern cousins. I once

had the unfortunate experi-

ence of losing a filet mignon

from an on-board barbecue by

a tenacious and seemingly

heat resistant gull. He must

have been the hero of the day when all his friends

swooped down to devour the huge hunk of protein as

it fell into the water. I, on the other hand, looked

unhappily at my rather barren plate with only baked

potato and vegetables!

Pelicans, those pre-historic looking birds, always

provide a great photo opportunity with their many

and varied aspects. A pelican never dives for a specif-

ic fish as many people suppose, but rather dives into

a school of minnows hoping that out of the melee one

or several will swim into its pouch. You can always tell

if a bird has had success; after draining out the water

from its pouch it will give a satisfied waggle of its tail

before launching off for another try. I have watched a

pelican taking off while snorkeling (me, not the bird);

a fascinating sight, its webbed feet churning like bees’

wings before the bulky creature becomes airborne.

The pelican is probably our most famous indigenous

bird, even to the extent of hav-

ing his own limerick. But

whether he will win the photo

contest remains to be seen.

“A wonderful bird is the peli-

can. Its beak can hold more than

its belly can; He flies and he

soars; Dives and he scores; I

don’t know how the hell he can.”

Festival Off To A Flying Start

Festival has started! So it’s time to relax and enjoy

the vast variety of music and entertainment on offer

over the next couple of weeks. Kicking off the celebra-

tions at the Festival Ground is the Gospel Fest, at

7:30pm on Thursday, 26th July followed by Showtime

Band and Spectrum Band on Friday. Other highlights

include the Calypso Competition, which starts at 9pm

on Saturday night, where 18 Calypsonians will be

vying for this year’s Calypso Monarch title and the

crown! On Sunday, enjoy the Steel Band Fest and

Monday’s entertainment includes a local DJ and

Xtreme Band. Tuesday is Youth Night with VI Band

and Jammers HP and Culture Night on Wednesday will

feature troupe performances and your favorite fungi

band Razor Blades. So get down to the festival village,

grab some great food and your friends and have fun,

fun fun!

London Olympics 2012Don’t miss the Opening Ceremony of the London

Olympics, this Friday from 3pm and support our dele-

gation of two – flag bearer Tahesia Harrigan-Scott and

J’Maal Alexander. RBVIYC will be showing it on their

big screen with Pimms and bangers and mash to set

the scene and see whether London can put on a bet-

ter show than Beijing four years ago – it will be a hard

act to follow!

Guy Eldridge Memorial RaceIt’s that time again for the Royals (RBVIYC) and

Loyals (WEYC) to battle it out for the Manhattan Yacht

Club Trophy. The race will start off Nanny Cay at 12

noon on Saturday, 28th July and finish in Great

Harbour, Peter Island. The top three yachts will then

nominate crew to compete for the trophy, which

involves relays in dinghies. Drinks, lunch, dancing and

general shenanigans will follow at Oceans 7. A pirate

phrase or two always helps to decide the winner, such

as, “C’,mon, lad, shiver me timbers!” Last year the

Loyals failed to bring home the loot, but this year they

are determined to get the trophy back! Registration is

at Nanny Cay between 10:30am and 11:30am on the

day of the race. Call Andrew Waters 494-4868 for

more details.

Paddle the BayA shout out to all Stand-Up Paddlers and

Kayakers! This Saturday, head over to Sebastians at

4pm to “Paddle the Bay” from Apple to Cane Garden

Bay. After the event, join sunset revelers for an

SavagesBy Arlena St.Hilaire

Savages is nothing if not

unique. The basic plot

isn’t unique – a group of

crafty outsiders take on

the mob – but the

specifics are so peculiar

that you’ll feel compelled

to both applaud and mut-

ter, “what the heck!”

Often at the same time.

The Movie begins with (Blake Lively) Ophelia

(nicknamed “O”) narrating, but refusing to tell

whether or not she’s doing so from beyond the grave.

She introduces her character as a free spirit in a sur-

prisingly stable three-way affair with ex-Navy SEAL

Chon (Taylor Kitsch) and botany genius/Good

Samaritan Ben (Aaron Johnson.)

They all live in a gorgeous home on Laguna Beach

and, in a flashback, we learn that they all work togeth-

er distributing the world’s greatest strain of marijua-

na. They’ve achieved a true happiness, with Chon pro-

viding the occasional muscle and Ben gallivanting the

globe, using his wealth to build clean water solutions

in third world countries. The characters in Savagesare constantly smoking pot, despite the fact that

nobody ever seems stoned.

Trouble comes though, when a Mexican cartel

headed by Elena (Salma Hayek) and represented by

Lado (Benicio Del Toro), demand to be part of their

thriving business. The pair decides wisely to just walk

away, but before they can skip town their love “O” is

kidnapped. Now they have to do whatever they’re

told in order to get her back. John Travolta gives his

best performance in years as a sniveling, corrupt FBI

agent. Who plays both sides to get what he wants.

This is when things get really crazy, with double-

crosses and violent raids but, to be frank, things are a

little off from the beginning. Savages loves its hazy

montages, be they of aggressive killings or a pictorial

symphony of a spoiled girl’s trip to the mall.

The pair agree that the only way to get “O” back

alive is to go head-to-head with Elena and Lado –

resulting in routinely compromised integrity and a trail

of bloodshed along the way.

By Dean “The Sportsman” Greenaway in London

LONDON—Of the 204 Olympic Committees send-

ing athletes to the London Olympic Games and stay-

ing in training camps across England, only one will

have experienced the true English hospitality.

Athletes and officials from around the world will have

come to London for the Olympic Games which opens

tomorrow, stay in the Olympic Games Village, then

walk away without knowing anyone, or getting a true

feel of the English hospitality.

There are 10,490 athletes accredited to the

London Olympic Games, but only two will experience

what Tahesia Harrigan-Scott and J’Maal Alexander

have experienced, during their pre Games training

camp in Aston.

There 204 Secretary Generals of Olympic

Committees across the globe, 203 of which won’t

have the experience I’ve had staying in Aston with the

team.

Of the 1000s of athletes who have been in training

camps across Great Britain, only two would have

stayed in family homes, had tea, coffee, scones and

broken up the monotony of the same daily routine.

Having a training facility all to themselves also helped

them focus on their Games preparations.

Not many local people in an Olympic Games’ host

country get to meet and interact

with Olympic athletes. Harrigan-

Scott and Alexander have been able

to share their experiences with

many in Aston, time and again and

be ambassadors for the country at

various functions they attended.

Besides the Team Welcoming

Ceremony in the Olympic Games Village, the Aston

community came out in droves last Thursday to wel-

come Team BVI to the city. It was our turn to say

thanks to all the host families and David and Shirley

Parker, who over the last three years, have hosted

several BVI teams and athletes either training or pass-

ing through England on an athletic mission some-

where. They were the ones co-ordinating our program

in Aston, after discussions began 5-years ago in Rio

de Janeiro, Brazil, with Rosemary Mula, about Aston

hosting the BVI for the London Olympic Games.

Coach Winston Potter, Chef de Mission Dag

Samuels and Physiotherapist Dr. Angela Salsedo,

Harrgian-Scott and Alexander were able to meet

Aston Primary School students, parents and extend-

ed family, sign autographs, take photos and eat

numerous English homemade goods.

Having the Enis Adams Primary School Hawks

Dance Group perform to Fungi music as well at vari-

ous functions, also made them feel at home.

When they broke camp on Tuesday afternoon and

entered the Olympic Games Village, they walked

away from their stay in Aston with an unparalleled

experience that will remain with them forever.

This is something no other team has had since we

begin participating in the Olympic

Games in 1984.

Our athletes now have a com-

munity following them and wish-

ing them well as they compete in

the Olympic Games. And that’s a

different Olympic Games experi-

ence altogether!J'Maal Alexander, left and Taheisa Harrigan-Scott withAston Primary School students
