CONGRESS Place was lit up last Friday as the People’s National Congress/ Reform (PNC/R) held their annual Christmas concert at the party’s headquarters.

The air was definitely filled with Christmas cheer, songs, dances and spoken words at the Yuletide celebration, “Christmas at Congress Place.” The event attracted a wide cross-section of citizens including A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) Members of Parliament; members of the diplomatic corps; the Private Sector Commission; Regional Democratic Councillors from surrounding regions and members of the PNC/R.

Entertaining the crowd were several well known artistes and groups, namely; the Glory Light Dancers, Samuel Madas, Earl Clifton on Trombone, The Circle of Love, the Success Elementary School Choir, and the Korokwa Folk Group, among others.

Chairman of the PNCR and Member of Parliament, Mr. Basil Williams, welcomed the gathering and delivered greetings on behalf of the party; Ms. Cheryl Sampson also delivered greetings on behalf of the National Congress of Women (NCW), the women’s arm of the party.

Leader of the PNC/R, Brigadier David Granger, also addressed the audience while extending holiday greetings to the attendees and the general public.
