Shipment of educational games for Carriacou kids

Kayaks living overseas continue to play a pivotal role in the development of Carriacou and Petit Martinique.

The Ministry of Carriacou and Petit Martinique Affairs received a shipment of educational games from the New York based Carriacou and Petit Martinique 2000 (CPM 2000) for distribution to primary and secondary schools.

Minister of Carriacou and Petit Martinique Affairs Senator the Hon. George Prime along with his Personal Assistant Mr. Anderson Matheson handed over the books to the various schools.

In his remarks to the Hillsborough Government School, where the Minister presented to the principal Mr. Henry Stiell, Senator Prime said the government places much emphasis on education, as “an educated nation is necessary for development and growth.”

Mr. Stiell said the school is “very grateful” for the donation, as it will help in the development of the children.

Presentations were also made to Mt. Pleasant Government, Dover Government, L’Esterre R.C and Harvey Vale Government School. The Principals at the various schools expressed their gratitude to the Carriacou and Petit Martinique 2000 organisation for the gesture. The supplies comprise Brain Quest, Monopoly, Picture Dictionary, Bingo, Scrabble and Chess.

In addition, the group will awarded ten full scholarships to eligible students at the T.A. Marryshow Community College (TAMCC) in Six Roads Carriacou, at an estimated annual cost of US $3,500. The scholarships are based on need and will be focused on lagging sectors of the economy. The CPM 2000 says it is committed to improving the quality of life for the people of all three islands in the state of Grenada. The CPM 2000 is also the sponsor for the annual Spelling B competition among the primary schools.

Newsflash

Notice to all visitors.

Turtle for the kitchen of Paradise Inn The content about the former Paradise Inn Carriacou has been unavailable for some time. This place now operates under a new name, since many visitors were extremely unhappy about it and wrote their experiences on sites like TripAdvisor and Yahoo travel guides.
My own experiences under the new management were extremely unpleasant and it even got dangerous staying in this hotel.
Bear in mind that there is no staff here at night and no measures for safety have been taken.
Property of guests disappears while the staff does not handle such problems. Some rooms dont even lock properly...

Dishonesty : The webhosting and maintenance, design and all other costs related have never been paid by the hotel owner Peter A.
The deal we had (free lodging in return for a good website) was not honoured by him, nor the promised pay of my flight to Carriacou.
Attempts to steal this website from me, later on threats and then even imprisonment for three days on false accusation was the result.
False quoting : Several hotel guests complained after they discovered that they had to pay 25 percent more then the price quoted. Complaints to be sent to the hotel owner in London, never received replies to those complaints....
The hotel is now using frequently changing email addresses from gmail or msn, probably to avoid receiving complaints...

But... I got several requests from visitors to make the Carriacou information easily accesible again.
I keep these pages online now.
As before, the Paradise Inn-related content will stay offline,
The former pleasant hotel Paradise Inn does not exist as such anymore.
It is now completely rundown and staff is unfriendly, even hostile towards visitors.
That is why I advise you not to visit this hell inn, but choose another hotel for your vacation on Carriacou.

Even though it now operates under a new name, you will know that it is the same one if you are on the south end of Paradise Beach on Carriacou and you see a blue building. If you are ignored by the staff when you enter you are shure that this is the same Hell Inn.
