So, neither where you brightly clad in your costume blowing your whistle with cup in hand enjoying the madness nor where your perched at one of the various vantage points that lined the route from Spring Garden highway to Cave Hill, but you would still like to know what went down? Guildchill was there and simply put everything went down.Down to the ground again,again and again...the revelers never tired along the route with only three minor incidents where medical attention was necessary being reported.The drinks went down with the drinks trucks returning to campus 
with empty cases and their unemployed bartenders their only car
go.
with empty cases and their unemployed bartenders their only car
go. An estimated 1900 revelers from the thirteen bands on the road also returned to campus with mile-wide smiles on their faces and went down until the music trucks played their last tune.The Saturday March 26 jump organised by the National Affairs Comimttee headed by R.Ziggy Marshall got started just after 3.00 p.m in the car park adjacent to Weisers on the bay and headed south toward Bridgetown along Spring Garden before turning by Mount Gay and following the highway back to campus.Under the watchful eyes of the Royal Barbdaos Police Force and private security the revelers made their way up the str
eet jamming to the "hypest" soca and ocassional dancehall tunes accompanied by three music trucks. Some onlookers opted to join the fun and chipping to the sides of the ropes containing those registered with the bands.It being carnival though, revelers spilled out of their designated areas onto the side of the streets as bands inter-mingled freely with each other.This may have created problems for the judges headed by Merle Niles including Kevin Carvalho and Anya Lorde (in for the ill Trevor Marshall).The results then, reflected the organisation of the bands as they made their way pass the judging points at S.B.I on the highway and opposite Royal Bank at the bottom of the hill. Unoffical results place Frontline,Bacchanalia and Stag Roots Army in favourable positions but the official decision will be made public when the N.A.C.C holds The Carnival Awards postponed from yesterday until further notice.When all was said an done all had had an enjoyable time of fun in the sun! Don't take my word for it though, the pictures tell the story that much better!
