Hello everyone,
Blessings to you all as it now approaches the festival season.I have not been back home for Independence for the longest and would love to know if it's the same as in old time days or if things have changed.Do they still have the Festival song competition,schools competing at the national level with folk songs,skits,dances etc. Do they still conduct the Denbeigh Agricultural Fair in Clarendon? How about local happenings? Do they still keep fairs/dances within the community? How I long for those good old days.
