    Two Vincentians who quit the cultural stage earlier this year, have been honoured for their contribution. They are John Horne and Edgar Adams.
    Trophies have been named in their memory, and the first recipients received the awards last Tuesday. 
    My Imagination Mas Band was the first to handle the John Horne Challenge Trophy. They took the Section of the Bands title with ‘Angel of the morning’ from their presentation ‘Watch out for this.’ 
    Jennilee Glasgow copped the Edgar Adams Challenge Trophy for the Individuals of the Year award. Her costume entitled: ‘Sporobrachus Giganticus,’ from ‘Wonders of Nature,’ is SVG Players International Mas Band 2019 presentation. 
    Horne, an entrenched Vincentian Mas man, established his foothold from early 1950s and continued to the very end. He is credited with the formation of the group Bridge Boys which served as a platform for this country’s cultural expression. 
    Adams has become known as perhaps this country’s most versatile writer and historian. His appetite for research and ability in a variety of fields underlined his philosophical and patriotic fervour. 
    They both created realms of treasure in their lives and manner of living. (vin)
