Four days before Christmas, members of the Rotary Club of Road Town (host club), Rotary Club of Tortola, Rotary Club Sunrise of Road Town, Rotaract Club, Interact Club and EarlyAct Club came together during a joint breakfast meeting to celebrate the Holiday Season in the usual Rotary Fashion.

The highlight of the meeting was the guest speaker, Mrs. Eileene L.Parsons, who took those in attendance on a trip down memory lane.  In her usual charismatics and humors fashion, Mrs. P recounted Christmas as she remembered it back in the day.  Mrs. P captivated her audience with stories, tales and some personal experiences that brought the various accounts of Christmas traditions in the BVI alive……traditional Christmas cuisine, caroling and customs just to name a few.

The crowd was also entertained by the melodious voices of Hunter and Dakota Christopher singing “Do You Hear What I Here” and the dance group from the Enis Adams Primary School who performed to two well-choreographed pieces.
