Ladies also came from as far away as Florida, Alabama and Tenneessee to participate. The Prom Dress Fairy Project held the FREE prom dress giveaway on the first saturday in March, in which ALL young ladies that attend receive a dress, make up, positive reinforement and a fun filled shopping spree for prom that is FREE of charge. The highlight of the day is when a young lady gets to walk the red carpet in the dress she picked out, so that her family can see. 0 5100 We Does Fete Masquerade Band traveled to Besemear Alabama (Caribbean Carnival), Stone Mountain (Mardi Gras) and 3l Elementry Schools to perform and display the art of the Traitional Caribbean Clown. The dances and moves date back to African Ceremonial and Roman Festivals, and were incorporated into modern day in St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands and brough to the US Mainland by small groups, such as ours.
