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!

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

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

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

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
