Impressive outfits, energetic dance steps, excellent musical entertainment and much fun shaped its atmosphere. “I had a great time,” said one reveller. “What you could see is that everybody was happy to make an effort to dress up. Everyone was congratulating each other. It was well organised and very glamorous.”
Highlights of the evening were firework sparklers and a competition for the best-dressed male. Raymi Ramirez took home the first prize, a plasma television set, for his “elegance and creativity.” Judges elected Herman “Grand” Heemstadt number two for his striking navy outfit.
Disc jockeys from St. Eustatius and Saba kept the beat beating and the toes tapping. They performed high on a specially-mounted stage transformed from a boat belonging to Golden Rock Dive Center. From this spectacular platform, they played dance music to please everybody, from line dancing and bachata to salsa and freestyle.
