The inaugural activity saw some 60 senior citizens given food hampers and treated to a grand lunch. The chairman for the NDC Mr. Basant Singh Persaud in opening remarks welcomed everyone present and commended the club for hosting such a significant event.
The Club’s President Mr. Albert Budhoo stated that they were very excited and happy to be a part of such an event, to celebrate Guyana’s Jubilee Independence Anniversary and to show appreciation to the senior citizens.
