This would not have been possible without the help of our dedicated team who worked long hours to ensure that this year’s presentation would be a great success.  We especially want to thank all the parents for their continued support and commitment to our band that definitely contributed to our success. The biggest joy for us was seeing the young kids enjoying themselves as they paraded their beautiful costumes on stage. Congrats to them. We are assured of the future of the Carnival. Finally, we would like to thank the Miami-Broward One Carnival Host Committee for giving us and the other bands participating in this year’s event the opportunity to display our creative skills and talents to the Community at large. We can just say that this was definitely a “ labour of love”, stated Rose Kelly, Heritage TNT.
