Written by Tash Van Doimen 
EVERGREEN Adventures presented three lucky winners of their GuyExpo promotion with all-inclusive trips to various destinations at a presentation ceremony held last Tuesday at Trans Guyana Airways, Ogle International Airport, East Coast Demerara.The three fortunate winners were presented with all-inclusive trips for two to Kaieteur Falls, Baganara Island Resort and Suriname by the General Manager of Marketing and Customer Service Manager for Evergreen Adventures, Alvin Wilson and Diana Poole, respectively.
The GuyExpo-launched competition is the second of its kind to be promoted by Evergreen Adventures, a tour operator managed by the Correia Group of Companies, the first of which began at GuyExpo 2012.
Mr. Wilson said that the promotion was launched by Evergreen Adventures as a way to give back to the community for visiting their booth at GuyExpo. He said the aim is “to give the locals the opportunity to visit these places and show the public that these trips are inexpensive, contrary to common thought.”.
The competition winners included Mr. Chandra Shekar Jainarain of Garden of Eden, East Bank Demerara, who was presented with a one-day trip to Kaieteur Falls; Ms. Carmen Laud of Alberttown, who got a two-day trip to Suriname; and Ms. Fiona Sancho, who was absent from the presentation ceremony, but won an overnight trip to Baganara Island Resort. The winners were selected randomly by the pilots pulling the coupons from a box on the 25th October, 2013.
According to Mr. Wilson, the competition procedure was a simple one that required participants to visit the Evergreen Adventures GuyExpo booth, decide which destination was most desired and fill out a coupon with a location-specific question for the trip. Therefore, each trip had a specific question: for the Kaieteur trip the question required the participant to name the administrative region in which Kaieteur Falls is situated, while the Baganara question required the name of the closest town to the resort and finally, the last question requested the name of the local carrier that travels to Suriname.
This year is the first time that a trip to Suriname was included among the prizes. According to Wilson, this was a tribute to Trans Guyana, a sister company of Evergreen Adventures, which is one of the few carriers that travel to Suriname.
