As part of the annual Tourism Week of activities, December 6^th – 12^th, 2009,  held at the start of the winter tourist season, officials from the Ministry of Tourism, Barbados Tourism Investment Inc. and the Barbados Hotel and Tourism  Association visited St. Elmo’s Moon Town, St. Lucy last Friday night to ‘Meet and Greet’ tourists.

Minister of Tourism Richard Sealy was high in praise to see the development of Moon Town and said he awaits to see the day when Moon Town would be officially placed on the Barbados’ map. Sealy encouraged the tourists to spread the good word about Barbados and to always make Barbados their second home.

CEO of St. Elmo’s Moon Town, Denis Kellman, MP for St. Lucy warmly welcomed the scores of tourists that flooded Moon Town to be part of  Community Tourism and to share in the local cuisines. Kellman noted that major works are in the pipeline and that Moon Town, the smallest town in the world  would soon be the envy of the Caribbean.

He added that Moon Town caters to locals and tourists with a well stocked bar and exciting nightly events which include Steelpan, Karaoke, Oldie Goldies, Limbo Dancing and Back in Time music on Sunday nights. Breakfast, lunch and dinner, he said are expertly prepared by qualified chefs daily.

Tourism Week is used to celebrate the importance of tourism to Barbados’ development and to stimulate awareness among the general populace and visitors about the industry.
