A great time was had by all who rang in 2017 with Parliamentarian Donville Inniss on Saturday night.
Satisfied party goers described the Old Year’s Night Party as “the place to be”.
The Member of Parliament for St James South attracted hundreds of Barbadians to his Desert Rose Drive, Husbands St James residence for the party doubled as a celebration for his birthday, which is January 1st.
Inniss could be seen dancing the night away with family, friends, constituents, members of the business community and those who opted for what was possibly the least expensive event on the island – a sumptuous meal, drinks and music all night for $50.
He told The Barbados Advocate that the annual party which is now in its ninth year, is an excellent setting for persons to get together in a safe environment, celebrate the past year and look forward to the New Year.
“Yes, it is well patronized…There are those who wish to go to a $300 event. There are those who can afford it, but perhaps don’t need to have that extravagance, and there are those who can’t afford it but would still like to enjoy a nice party,” he pointed out.
“I have always liked a good house party. Unlike other places, there is no additional cost to overheads because it’s my house, so we have been able to keep the cost down – it’s not a profit-making event. It’s really for folks to just come shake a leg, eat some food and have a great time”. (TL)
