500 prize money... its disrespect for those who make the carnival possible. With out the mas and steel bands there is no carnival as we know it and that is what these carnival comittees who are in control fail to realize.

Ok thank you for people like Lezama who formed these committees but i think its time that these committees be open for public participation and elections of officers every year. Once there is no change in leadership then there is corruption.

Things have to and will change. The young people who are coming up are smarter and more educated... therefore i am confident change is on the horizon.!
