The presentation was made by Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Tourism, Jennifer Griffith The school from Westmoreland walked away as champions of the inaugural TPDCo Tourism Quiz! The team beat Naggo Head Primary from St. Catherine. When the announcement was made, the Broughton Primary team laughed and jumped in glee to hear that they were the champions. They ended with 50 points while Naggo Head came in second with 22. This moment for both teams was reflective of the outcome of persistence and discipline and they deserved to dance and jump. In addition to being named the champions, Broughton Primary walked away with the large TPDCo trophy, replica trophies for each team member, a One Hundred Thousand Dollar cash prize, tour of and lunch aboard the Allure of the Seas cruise ship, day passes to Beaches Resort, Dolphin Cove and the historic Devon House, a Ten Thousand Dollar gift voucher and dictionaries from Sangster’s Bookstore, Team Jamaica scholarships for the coaches and TPDCo goodie bags for the coaches. Broughton Primary also walked away with the special award for scoring the most points in the competition and in a single match of 183 and 52 points respectively. Naggo Head received some great prizes as well: replica trophies for the team members, Fifty Thousand Dollars for their school, and day passes to Hyatt Ziva, Mystic Mountain and Devon House. The coaches received Team Jamaica scholarships as well as TPDCo goodie bags. The third and fourth place winners, Mount St. Joseph Prep and Ardenne Preparatory were not left out; they received boat tours at the Montego Bay Marine Park and TPDCo goodie bags for the coaches. We can say with great certainty that the TPDCo Tourism quiz was a success, but it would not be possible without our sponsors Television Jamaica, the Tourism Enhancement Fund, Jamaica Vacations and the Jamaica Tour- ist Board. Thanks to our donors, the students will be able to get up close and personal with our tourism prod- uct: Falmouth Jamaica Land Company, Beaches Resort, Hyatt Ziva, Montego Bay Marine Park, Dolphin Cove, Mystic Mountain, Devon House, Sangster’s Book- store, and Team Jamaica.
