The Rotary Club of Grenada will host a significant ceremonial event on November 30, 2025, with District Governor Soraya Gustave-Warner of Rotary District 7030 presiding as the distinguished guest of honor. The occasion marks the official inauguration of the annual Christmas at the Point (CaTP) festival, set against the scenic backdrop of Quarantine Point Recreational Park.
Governor Soraya brings substantial leadership credentials to the event, having dedicated over ten years to Rotary International’s service mission. Her progressive roles—including Assistant Governor, District Trainer, and strategic committee member—culminated in her election to oversee one of the organization’s most diverse districts. Rotary District 7030 encompasses 17 nations and territories throughout the Caribbean and South America, representing a mosaic of cultures and communities.
Her participation underscores the strategic importance of the CaTP initiative, which since 2009 has served as a cornerstone of the Rotary Club of Grenada’s community outreach. More than a seasonal celebration, the project integrates family engagement, local economic stimulation, and environmental awareness within a secure and vibrant public setting.
This year’s festival also emphasizes regional cooperation and disaster response. Building on prior support for Carriacou and Petite Martinique in the aftermath of Hurricane Beryl, the Club now channels efforts toward Hurricane Melissa recovery in Jamaica. Governor Soraya’s involvement highlights Rotary’s commitment to compassion-driven action and inter-island resilience.
Club President Julia G. Lawrence remarked, “Governor Soraya’s presence reaffirms our dedication to sustainable community impact. Her endorsement of Christmas at the Point illustrates how service can be simultaneously festive, inclusive, and transformative.”
The festival will operate from November 30, 2025, through January 4, 2026, running weekly from Wednesday to Sunday. Attendees can enjoy live musical performances, open-air cinema, a Holiday Boutique showcasing Grenadian artisans, a Christmas Grotto for children, and diverse culinary offerings—all within the natural beauty of Quarantine Point.
