Serious partying

There was more than just the smell of 'spirits' in the air as last Friday's PROComm 'Christmas Launch' party found guests from the spectrum of corporate Jamaica and the media 'constructively engaged' in some serious partying.

The East Lawn of Devon House was transformed into the unofficial 'coalition café' with bistro tables covere in green and orange and guests (save for the few 'die-hearts' of either side), bedecked in the green and orange leis.

Needless to say, the music encompassed all eras and styles, but it was the soca set that first got things really moving on the circular dance floor. Among those enjoying the vibes were Lascelles Chin and wife Eileen of LASCO, Digicel Group chief Colm Delves and his wife Paula, NCB Foundation Chairman Thalia Lyn and Captain Michael Lyn, Tomofumi Fukuda of Marubeni, Winsome Callum of JPS, Digicel Jamaica team members, led by Marketing manager Wayne Miller, Major Hugh Blake and his wife Judith, Guardsman's Kenny Benjamin, Valerie Juggan-Brown and Sheila Benjamin-McNeill. The Hon. Dennis Lalor brought his distinguished friends Jeremy Cresswell, British High Commissioner and his partner Barbara and Canadian High Commissioner Denis Kingsley and wife Jo Ann.

Prizes courtesy of PROComm clients, LASCO and Digicel, went to the best green and orange outfits while Deryck Rose got a special 'Long-Partying Award' having been at almost every PROComm session since 1981!
