Callender replaced Aubrey Hutson who did not seek re-election and will have two vice-presidents assisting him, in former treasurer Luan Gooding and Eton Morris.
Three new faces in Rodwell Lewis, Bonita Frank and Gidel Austin were elected General Secretary, Treasurer and Assistant Secretary/Treasurer respectively while Dexter Grant is the Organising Secretary with the naming of the Public Relations Officer to be done at the first executive council meeting.
