Olympic fever at the Stadium

The world may have been?focused on the 2012 Summer Olympic Games, but Barbados had a spectacle of its own yesterday.
It was not as grand as at the Olympic Stadium, but the National Stadium’s sportspeople parade was arguably more colourful than that of Olympic opening ceremony Friday night.
The Olympic feel hit the Stadium during the Kiddies Kadooment in the sports section of the Deacons Primary School band, titled Mekkin’ Sport In Bim, complete with the symbolic intertwined rings.
That was just a small part of the spectacle created by the near 3 000 junior revellers registered to play mas’ from the National Stadium. (YB)
