This event proved to be a successful joint community effort in aid of the Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Cayman Islands organisation. We would like to say “thank you” to our sponsors: Ministry of District Administration, Tourism & Transport, Hopscotch Productions and Studios, Star 92.7 FM, Cayman Airways Ltd., and Cost-U-Less. The event would not have been possible without the support from the Ministry of Education, Employment and Gender Affairs, the Ministry of Planning, Lands, Agriculture, Housing and Infrastructure (Facilities Management), and the Department of Education Services. The support from the general community was overwhelming and we are grateful to those who came out to support the event.
President Lion Rayle Roberts stated that “the Lions Club of Grand Cayman is proud to support Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Cayman Islands as this organisation continues to make a positive impact on our youth and empower them to succeed. Through this annual event, we will be able to influence the youth in our local community in many ways and also advocate for arts education within our schools.”
