Christmas in Georgetown


Christmas is an important holiday. As Ronetta says, "We make a big fuss about it." Houses are cleaned inside and out. New paint is applied (even if it is raining). Streets are repaired and repainted and decorations go up. It is a time of family and friends gathering. The gift giving is minimal. Some of the children only get one gift and that is what they receive at the branch Christmas party. Last year, the boys got plastic trucks and the girls got a small doll in Demerara Branch.
