Stephen Miller, LIME Skool Aid project manager, said he was pleased about the staging and thanked all who worked on the project, which was one of his company's major community outreach activation. "We provided free school bags for children filled with supplies and tokens from our partners. Miller said. "We understand the pressure that parents face, particularly at this time of year, and so we also hope to ease some of that with the useful services that we will be providing, free of cost." There were also rides and attraction and medical check-ups for the patrons. A number of students, parents and guardians left the venue smiling, after receiving gift packages. Throughout the day's activities, students were called to collect their prizes at 10-minute intervals. Patrons participate in a number of activities, such as dancing and bun-eating contests. Many persons said it was a very good gesture, especially for back to school. "The yute dem can go back to school with good school bag, as we come early and LIME give we two. God bless dem fi dat," Michael Jameson, a patron, said. The entertainment package included Specialist, QQ, KipRich, Denyque, the comedic duo Apache Chief and Sarge, dancers, and more. |
