Last Tuesday, December 15, the Nine Nights of Lights Organizing Committee turned on the lights at the Botanical Gardens, for the sixth year in a row. Amid fears of a coronavirus spread, a reasonable crowd of patrons flocked to the site to enjoy what was on offer.
The opening ceremony heard remarks from a number of persons, who not only welcomed patrons but also put persons’ minds at ease that the activity was a safe one to attend, with health protocols having been established throughout the venue. Patrons were urged to enjoy the programmes and the occasion.

Forty Vincentian students last week received certificates for passing Spanish language courses at levels 2, 3 and 4, 5 and 7, and have now advanced to the next level of learning the language and the Afro-Latin American and Caribbean culture.
The students received their certificates on Thursday, December 10, at a ceremony held to mark the 190th anniversary of the last Proclamation of the Liberator Simón Bolívar (December 10, 1830) and the 8th anniversary of the Last Proclamation of Commander Hugo Chávez (December 8, 2012).
