In its third year of existence, the all-inclusive T-shirt bandâs presentation is dubbed âIza Fettaâ.
In addition to the T-shirts that will be available in neon green, neon orange and white, The Network SVG has introduced two other unique packages: a frontline piece and a kiddiesâ package.
Band manager Stacy Balcombe-Peters stopped by SEARCHLIGHT to share the exciting details.
âThe frontline is a bit more exclusive and itâs just for the ladies,â Balcombe-Peters explained. âItâs a different look, a bit more exoticâ.
Although parents may have bought T-shirts for their children in the past, this is the first year that any T-shirt band in St Vincent has offered a kiddiesâ package.
âThat will be our Network Kiddiesâ Jam,â the manager said.
Balcombe-Peters observed that it is important for the local band to support local products and so, all products used by the Monday T-shirt band are locally produced.
âFor instance, one of our major sponsors, Sunset Rum, which has been with us from day one and Hairoun Beer, which has come on board with us this year,â she pointed out. âAs well as Searles peanuts, which will be included in personsâ package when they come and collect their packageâ.
Additionally, Balcombe-Peters declared that revellers can expect an exciting day, due to the extensive line-up of deejays and artistes that will be on board The Network truck.
âThe deejays that will be on the truck: Chemical X, Pitbull, Hyperactive, Ice Cold, DJ CJ and from Jamaicaâ¦coming in just for carnival, is DJ Billy,â she said.
The Network SVG package, which comes at a cost of EC$40, includes a T-shirt in oneâs desired colour and an array of accessories: mugs, bandanas, mardi gras beads and sunglasses.
âWe also have condoms to promote safe sex during the carnival,â the manager mentioned.
Beverages, both alcoholic and non alcoholic, will also be available for persons that are a part of the movement.
Under their motto âA movement for the people, by the peopleâ, Balcombe-Peters encourages persons to join in on the fun and share in a band that is people driven.
âIt is a non-funded corporate Monday jam t-shirt band and itâs a band that is made up of creative Vincentians coming together and try to offer a unique concept for Carnival Monday,â she said.
The manager expressed thanks to the Carnival Development Corporation (CDC), as well as the Police Commissioner for making the bandâs preparations go smoothly.
Other sponsors on board for this yearâs presentation include C.K. Greaves, Daddy Tours, Amerijet, Bank of St Vincent and the Grenadines (BOSVG), Metrocint General Insurance, Aycees Inc, Star Garage, Benâs Auto Rental and KP Marine Ltd.
