POND ISLAND:--- TelEm Group launched their pre-carnival warm up campaign at Sheika's, Backstreet, Friday, with members of the St. Maarten Carnival Development Foundation (SCDF) present - along with a host of carnival revelers and supporters.
The warm up is TelCell's 2nd Annual Road to Carnival event, which will be followed by a host of other fun events and activities leading up to the official opening of carnival.
SCDF President, Michael Granger, is once again happy that TelCell is taking the initiative to promote the island's premier tourist event in the lead up to carnival.
"Anything we can do to promote Carnival, especially on our 45th anniversary is most welcome," said the SCDF President.
Road to Carnival 2 Project Leader, Suraj Ramdas, said carnival followers can once again look forward to some great promotions by their favourite mobile provider with lots of giveaways, and most of all – "carnival-themed fun."
He said the schedule of upcoming events includes: a celebration at the Roof Top Bar & Grill, Illidge Road, on March 21, A Causeway Jump Up after party by Soggy Dollar on March 28, A TelEm Backyard Bashment on April 4, and the Road to Carnival grand finale event, a Mega Road Block jam on Sucker Garden Road between Monchies and Steven's Bar.
"We are looking forward to the participation of the public to all our upcoming events and promotions," said Suraj.
Last Friday's event coordinator, David Evans, said the Shieka's opening went off very well with several prizes-winners during the course of the evening among them Erissa Cozier.
