THE COURTS 45th anniversary parade is to be a grand affair with more than 650 participants.
   Designer Betty West is on board and is responsible for the floats and costumes.
   “Three months ago I was approached by Courts to take on this project. I enjoyed putting it together because it gave me the opportunity to show my true talents,” she said.
   The parade, which will include cheerleaders, a marching band and costumes, will leave Queen’s park on November 20 and travel through Bridgetown, ending at Courts
in George Street.
   Andy Armstrong and Mikey, the Soca Kartel, will be providing entertainment and Freekz Customz will feature twin lab customised vehicles.
