Posted - Jul 30 2002 : 3:53:37 PM Greetings....
On Tuesday, August 6th, the Council of the City of New York, in conjunction with the Office of the Consulate General to Jamaica, the Jamaica Tourist Board and Air Jamaica, will be celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the Independence of the island of Jamaica with an Awards Ceremony and Grand Reception at City Hall. The programme is expected to commence at 6:45 pm and will most likely end at 9:00pm, with the reception to follow.
We will be celebrating forty years of strength, courage and resilience of the mighty island of Jamaica through traditional music, dance, and food. Some of Jamaica's best and brightest nationals that have presented numerous contributions to our American society will be on hand to celebrate with us.
We have created a Memorial Tribute to Rt. Honorable Marcus Mosiah Garvey, Jamaica's proudest son, during our Celebration. As part of our commitment to promote Jamaican culture and awareness, we will be presenting a Proclamation incommemoration to Marcus Garvey post-humously from the City of New York to his sons, Dr. Julius Garvey and Marcus Garvey, Jr., during the ceremony.
Attached, you will find the official City Hall invitation. Feel free to print and distribute to your colleagues and friends. Please confirm your attendance for this prestigious event by contacting Tara L. Martin, Director of Legislative Affairs, at 212/788-7352 or the City Hall RSVP line at 212/788-5613.
