After Carnival Reunion- 2010 the Review..

In 2009, the E-Alumni committee successfully put together two reunions (Trinidad & New York).  For 2010, the committee, having been approached by many of its members, made a decision to make each reunion annual affairs, giving all Alumni of Woodbrook Secondary School, the opportunity to rekindle friendships and of course network. 
 
Against this backdrop, the Annual All Inclusive After Carnival Reunion was held at Veni Mange on 20th February 2010.


Patrons attending, who represented graduating years from 1971 and beyond, were treated to the well prepared and tasty dishes from the crew at Veni Mange - delicacies included souse, bake and shark, geera pork & chicken, corn soup, hot wings and much more.

The DJ's for the evening were none other than the very competent and able KLS & Trumpet (of 96.1FM), both alumni of WGSS.
Also making a very special appearance was Kindred performing the favourite 'This Trini could flow'.  Closing off the evening's special entertainment was the upcoming and talented alumnus Myron B, who impressed all in attendance with his witty and humourous tunes.

The evening would not be complete without the door prize draws (of which there were 10 prizes to be won) and the lucky winners were:


DOOR PRIZES
*2 Costumes for T&T Carnival 2011- courtesy Legacy (one male / one female) - won by Halima Kassim & Perry

With yet another successful event on the roster for the WGSS E-Alumni, they look forward to September 2010, where the NY team will be hosting the international reunion.

In the mean time the E-Alumni will continue to assist the Alumni Association in their events and membership building drives - the first of which will be the May Day Fun Day on Sunday 2nd May 2010, where classes of the 60's - 90's are being asked to form a football team as an inter year challenge has been issued.

Oh What A Night - Nov 7th 2009!!



From all accounts coming in from those who attended the Alumni Association’s Annual Dinner & Dance last weekend, it was a great success.

The event saw close to 300 alumni from as early as 1965, some 44 years ago spread throughout the years. Laughter, memories, chatter, dancing – oh what a night!

Mr. Inskip Pollonais was honoured for his achievements and in particular, his support of the alumni in the last five founding years, the food was excellent, the decor was simple, tasteful yet beautiful.

Darren Drayton of the 80’s alumni era, played the music and had the varied crowd dancing, tapping, waving, to his tasteful, appropriate and groovy selections.

At the closing bell, the event, so enjoyable, persons stayed on the same spot where they danced, talking for over 40 minutes, not wanting to leave.

Attendees had the opportunity to meet and greet with familiar and not so familiar faces/names from graduating years gone by and of course faces to the names often seen on the E-Alumni.

The stage has been set for November 2010.
