NCF going paperless for Crop Over

Out of the paper world into the electronic media, that is the word from the National Cultural Foundation (NCF) in announcing its move to an online process of registration for Crop Over 2017.

Over the next few weeks, a number of forms from masquerade, to visual arts, to the music competitions will be available for full registration online through the Foundation’s official
website at http://www.ncf.bb/download-crop-over-2017-forms/.

Foreday Morning Jam and Pic-O-De-Crop registration forms are already available, while the Sweet Soca, Party Monarch, Visual Arts, Junior and Grand Kadooment forms will be accessible shortly.

The Junior Calypso Monarch registration forms will be available electronically but in .PDF format only. However, it is expected to also move to a full paperless process in 2018.
Stakeholders/entrants should note the specific times stated on the forms, but for most of the online registrations, eligibility is up to 11:59 p.m. on the deadline date. Hand deliveries to the NCF must be done on or before 3:30 p.m. on the deadline date.

For assistance with the online registration, stakeholders/entrants should contact Karen Oliver via email at karen-oliver@ncf.bb or by telephone at 417-6646.
