Trinidad & Tobago, W.I. - Pan Trinbago president Beverley Ramsey Moore has expressed concern with the marketing strategy for the inaugural Tobago Carnival. With two months to go before the October 28-30 festival begins, Ramsey-Moore said time is running out for the Tobago House of Assembly and the Tobago carnival committee to get it right.

....In a Facebook post, Ramsey-Moore said, “When you think you know and you really don’t know! That is the vibes I’m getting with Tobago backival, Karnival or whatever they having in October. Big roll out in Grenada and nothing ah yard. T&T have more people than G(renada). Dance ah yard before you dance abroad.”

....Ramsey-Moore said the latest information she had was that there was THA approval for pan events. She said Pan Trinbago’s Tobago region chairman is expected to meet the Division of Tourism on Monday to discuss the next step.



“I am awaiting the results of that meeting,” Ramsey-Moore said.



She added that the decision not to host steelband, calypso, soca and other competitions is expected to remain.
