THE Urban Renewal Music Masters Youth Band was voted ‘Best in Parade’ in the annual St Patrick’s Parade of Washington, DC, last year.

As the acclaimed Bahamian youth band did not return for a repeat performance in last Sunday’s parade, Bob Monagan, chairman of the St Patrick’s Parade of Washington, DC, paid a courtesy call on Dr Eugene Newry, Bahamas Ambassador to the United States, yesterday and presented him with the ‘Best in Parade’ trophy from last year.

Mr Monagan was accompanied by his daughter, Colleen, and is pictured in the Ambassador’s office with Jade Williams, Third Secretary, Embassy of The Bahamas, and Ambassador Newry.
