Carnival 2008, start of a 17 day festival
April 18, 2008
A Fairly large and enthusiastic Carnival Revelers crowd opened the season last night with the traditional jump-up from the Jose Lake Sr. Ball Park arriving at an awaiting Lt. Governor Richards who handed the Key to the new Festival Village to Fabiana Arnell, President of the St. Maarten Carnival Development Foundation (SCDF).
The amount of attendees and their merry demonstrated the “Preparedness” for a long 17 day carnival that culminates in the Grand Parade on April 30th.
