A good day for moms - Mona Visitors’ Lodge gives mothers the perfect gift
Mona, Jamaica, W.I. - ....Organised by the Mona, Visitors' Lodge and Conference Centre, the elegant but informal setting saw mothers being treated to a fashion show, feted, presented with gifts and entertained with appropriately selected live and recorded music.
....A relatively new Blue Print Steel Pan Band was the main course of live music.
Comprising members from different educational institutions, as well as others, the band of white polo shirt- and jeans-clad musicians made three appearances.
In their first act, they delighted the diners of various ages with Go Light Your Candle. Their blue pans mounted on steel, responding appropriately to gentle touches, the band segued into the sounds of Over the Rainbow. And Andrew Comrie, a member of the band played the clarinet for a lovely rendition of Stevie Wonder's I just Called to Say I Love You.

Is Blueprint a WST member?
