AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Brooklyn Jamaican Pride: New York’s first-ever Jamaica Day Parade and the first Jamaica Rising Day Parade both spotlight Jamaican culture in Flatbush, with crowds packing the streets for reggae, dancehall, soca, R&B, and traditional food as Jamaica marks 64 years of independence. Sports With Heart: In western Jamaica, the PMBL Treasure Beach Jamaican Youth Basketball Camp is set to bring training and sportsmanship to about 2,000 children and teens, with volunteers focusing on hurricane-impacted communities. Water Safety Push: NEPA says it will step up drowning awareness after the death of a 3-year-old in Hanover, targeting schools, beaches, and communities with outreach and more lifeguards. STEM for Rural Teachers: SRC’s Summer Attachment Programme reports 83% rural participation, aiming to narrow gaps in lab access and boost practical, student-centred STEM teaching. Back-to-School Care: St Thomas Health Department clinics and vaccination drives run through August, offering assessments and forms ahead of the new term. Independence Culture Night: Jamaica’s Independence Grand Gala at National Stadium drew thousands, with performances and a theme of resilience after Hurricane Melissa.
