Some of the changes that would be immediately noticeable will be: life guards on duty to look out for the number of young children who frequent the beach ; lounge chairs and large umbrellas; an entertainment area with food courts, barb-b-que facilities; picnic- style benches, music; a large lot where every motorist will park and then walk through an entertainment area to go to the beach; and an area with a ferris-wheel,Cheap Hockey Jerseys, trampoline and wading pool.The new initiative will also include a quiet religious zone, long boardwalk, Jet Ski rental, trampolines and beach shops and restaurants.The? Ministry hopes that “the Number 63 Beach will become the envy of other tourist destinations, especially the beach and creek facilities. It will be the example to follow in both the physical development and beautification,Authentic Jerseys Wholesale, and the community partnership and cooperation aspects”.The condition of the beach has deteriorated over a number of years.

He said that the committee hosts various activities to raise funds, but he said there is need for a more robust involvement of the Berbice business community.It is hoped that the new strategy to enhance Number 63 Beach will open the community to tourism related business from residents across Guyana and overseas visitors.

The performance included personnel from the Infantry,NFL Jerseys Authentic China, Artillery and school children.

Government is convinced that the parliamentary opposition is gearing to take advantage of its one-seat majority to dreadfully alter the 2013 National Budget.At least this is according to Minister of Amerindians Affairs Pauline Sukhai when she and other party representatives took the spotlight on Monday at a People’s Progressive Party/Civic press conference held at the party’s Robb Street, Georgetown, headquarters.This state of affairs, according to Sukhai,Wholesale China Jerseys, “leaves no doubt in our minds that the true intention of the opposition alliance of the Alliance for Change (AFC) and A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) is to use their one-seat majority in a callous and irresponsible manner.”This intent, according to the Minister,Wholesale Jerseys From China, was especially evident when an opposition member in making a presentation to the National Assembly was armed with a folder depicting a scissors about to cut a $1,Jerseys From China,000 bill. Minister Sukhai was at the time seeking to make reference to APNU’s Jennifer Wade during her contribution to the budget debates last week.And according to Minister Sukhai,jerseys nfl wholesale, it is the ruling PPPC’s conviction, too,Wholesale Authentic Jerseys, that the opposition seems confused,Cheap NFL Jerseys, as they themselves are giving out conflicting information as highlighted by a statement by the Leader of the Opposition, Brigadier Retired David Granger.Sukhai pointed out that “Granger is quoted as admitting that there is a little bit for everyone in the budget, yet he goes on to add that he is not satisfied with the budget.”But the Amerindian Affairs Minister noted that the ruling party will continue to rely on outreaches to highlight its intent to fight for a better future for all Guyanese. Moreover, she added that moves are currently being made to withstand the attacks of the opposition against the administration’s efforts.Sukhai disclosed that the PPPC has commenced a series of budget outreach meetings across the country which represent a follow-up on a set of similar engagements the party had prior to the crafting of the 2013 budget.The budget which was recently presented by Minister of Finance, Dr Ashni Singh, was described by Sukhai as “the largest in our nation’s history and undoubtedly the best so far, as it is reaching out to the needs of all classes and demographics in our country.”“Our series of meetings thus far have seen communities expressing support for the provisions contained in the budget and frustration at the opposition’s posturing…This also follows public support of budget 2013 from the private sector organisations across the country as well as other groups and agencies,” declared a confident Minister Sukhai.According to her, the responses to the outreaches that were held over the past weekend have been positive as persons of all backgrounds are welcoming the measures in place. As such the Minister said that “it is clear that the people of Guyana want development and progress to continue…This is even more necessary since our political opposition seems interested in having our people in a perennial state of confusion based on their misinformation campaign.”
