St Lucia: Lime bring the Jazz

LIME is teaming up with the St. Lucia Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Agriculture for Jazz on the Square 2009. The company is the Title Sponsor and exclusive telecommunications provider for the event. In addition to a cash contribution, LIME is providing telecommunications, technical and manpower support for the 5-day six show event. Jazz on the square is scheduled for May 4 to 8, 2009.

“We are very happy to be partnering with the Chamber of Commerce for Jazz on the Square once again,” said LIME Country Manager, Sean Auguste. “When it comes to Jazz on the Square, we see ourselves as natural partners with the Chamber. We are committed wholeheartedly to the event. Jazz on the Square is the most accessible of the events and the hundreds of fans who flock to the Square every year testify to that. It celebrates who we are as a people and everything that is beautiful about St Lucia. That’s why it holds the top spot in our annual calendar of activities. LIME is 100 percent committed to St Lucia and the Caribbean. We are working to make the region a better place.”

Executive Director of the Chamber of Commerce, Brian Louisy praised LIME for coming on board as a sponsor and expressed his appreciation for the support.
“At a time when many firms and even Government are cutting back we are extremely fortunate to have LIME taking up the title sponsorship. We are intent on putting on another series of excellent shows and even increasing the number from five to six this year, thanks to LIME and our other partners.”

Jazz on the Square is a hugely popular lime with St Lucia Jazz fans, especially persons working in the city centre. Every year hundreds of fans converge on the Derek Walcott Square during their lunchtime break and take in the superb music from world-class local and regional artistes. The Chamber Executive Director said he is expecting another great turnout this year.
“We expect Jazz on the Square this year to be one of the most exciting and spectacular lunchtime Jazz extravaganzas ever,” said Mr. Louisy. Along with LIME and the other sponsors he urged the public to come and enjoy the shows. “We will once again have three night time shows, from Monday to Wednesday, but we will start the Lunchtime series from Wednesday afternoon this year and go on until Friday afternoon”

Meanwhile, LIME is looking forward to welcoming the many school students and senior citizens who will be invited as special guests of Jazz on the Square. As usual, they will be treated to free gifts and refreshments during the shows to ensure that they have a wonderful time. Source
