UTS gives $30,000 to Carnival foundation

page7a262PHILIPSBURG--Partnering with St. Maarten Carnival Development Foundation (SCDF), United Telecommunication Services (UTS) has donated US $30,000 towards the upcoming Carnival season.

In addition to this partnership with SCDF, UTS will occupy booth #81 in the Festival Village throughout the Carnival season. Customers and Carnival-goers can expect a variety of promotions and exciting giveaways.

According to SCDF President Stuart Johnson, this financial contribution by UTS will be used in SCDF's promotion efforts, among other things, which include decorating the island in the spirit of Carnival in the lead-up to the island's premier cultural event.

In thanking UTS on behalf of SCDF, Johnson noted that this year's Carnival would be unique, being the first Carnival season under St. Maarten's new status. Johnson said this was SCDF's motivation for embracing this year's theme: "Country St. Maarten Fettin' for Carnival 2011."

UTS Service Market Manager Michanou Arrundell said, "I am elated to announce that we have decided to offer our support and financial contributions to SCDF. We had already pledged and succeeded in assisting with the revival of French-side Carnival last month. Now it is time to bring that spirit and energy to the Dutch side of the island. We are making it an island-wide affair, much like our island-wide service."
