EDITOR'S LETTER

Hello Soca People

Itrust your year is going well so far - and that those of you that have travelled to any of the pre-Lenten carnivals are fully recovered and ready for your next adventure.

Check out our roundup of Trinidad Carnival 2023, and some of the events we covered; you can see the full picture galleries at socanews.com/photos.

However, as we know, the fun doesn’t stop there. We have nine months of carnivals and festivals yet to come, beginning with Jamaica in April, St. Kitts Music Festival in June, Saint Lucia Carnival in July, and Crop Over, Antigua and Grenada carnivals all in August. So get those fingers a-typing and mice a-clicking, and start hunting down those flights.

We would like your help, so that we can further help you, in completing our survey on page 18. On completion, you’ll be eligible to win an Amazon voucher, so it’s win-win.

As always, we are looking for new writers. If you would like to put pen to paper and to get your words in print, please email jc@socanws. com.
