Block Meeting
 
Salisbury Reunion 2011 a success
November 30, 2011
 
Immediate past chairman of the Salisbury Enhancement Committee (SEC) has credited hard work and an influx of overseas-based Salisburians with the success of the Salisbury Reunion over the summer.

 

In his chairman’s report for SEC’s 3rd Annual General Meeting (AGM) held recently, Curth Charles said it was a long and hard fought effort for almost two years to create the best reunion that has ever taken place in Dominica.

 

“We were blessed with sponsors who gave their hard earned cash and kind, energetic and generous Salisburians living overseas who came back in huge numbers to enjoy this wonderful event we put together. Mainly it was blessed with hard-working Jean Bawi (Salisbury people) who dedicated their time, money and effort to ensure that the Reunion happened,” he noted.

 

Charles has served as chairman for four consecutive years since the committee’s formation. He did not seek re-election this term for what he said were “personal reasons.”

 

According to him, “there will be many unsung heroes that many people will never know of, those who prepared food, transported items, built structures, made phone calls, organized events, made decorations, cleaned and acted as security officers.”

 

Several people who dedicated their services to the Salisbury Reunion were also awarded by Charles as the outgoing chairman. Those recognized were: Reginald John, Lauren Frederick, Nurse Agatha Shillingford, Principal Burton Vidal and Velma Pierre Louis.

 

Meantime, the committee’s treasurer, Candia Joseph noted that total revenue of two hundred and seventy-six thousand, five hundred and forty-five dollars ($276,545) was recorded for the year in review. Total expenditure for the year was two hundred and sixty-eight thousand nine hundred and sixty four dollars and ten cents ($268,964.10).
 
Want to Help Salisbury From Abroad?

During Reunion many Salisburians living overseas expressed a desire to donate much needed goods to organizations in Salisbury but they had no way to know what is needed. Below you'll find wish lists from community groups in Salisbury. Anything you can bring or send down would be put to use immediately and incredibly needed. Boxes and barrels can be shipped to Salisbury Enhancement Committee, c/o Curth Charles, Salisbury, Dominica. Please send us an email ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ) so we know what to expect and who to thank!

 

Thanks in advance for your on going support and dedication!
