NEW COSTUMES: The Ginn sur Mer -sponsored West End Conquerors debuted new Junkanoo costumes designed by West End native, Ken Culmer.

West End, Grand Bahama Island  As part of its commitment to the development of the West End community, Ginn sur Mer made a $6,000 donation to the West End Conquerors Junkanoo group.

 

The donation will help the group cover the cost of creating first-class costumes for performances at special occasions and holidays. Formed in 2001, the West End Conquerors regularly perform at Old Bahama Bay by Ginn sur Mer events.  

 

The West End Conquerors debuted some of their new costumes at the recent Ginn sur Mer Homeowners’ Weekend held at Old Bahama Bay. Their performance was themed “Underwater at Ginn sur Mer – Old Bahama Bay” and depicted the natural marine wonders of West End and the glamour of Sur Mer.

 

 “As ‘sons of the soil’ of West End, we are extremely excited and grateful for Ginn sur Mer’s sponsorship,” said Jerreth Rolle, group spokesperson and treasurer. “This sponsorship demonstrates their commitment to the community. With Ginn’s continued support, we hope to demonstrate the real fervor and vibrancy of what Junkanoo is all about for visitors and residents alike.”
