Apollo Legion, & WTJX. The Governor of the Virgin Islands Governor Albert Bryan Jr was also in attendance, enjoying everything that the day had to offer. Positive Nelson which can be seen in the first below assisted in the hosting of the Mango Eating Competition for the Children and then the adults. This blogger even received the opportunity to participate in the adult aspect of the competition. Although I didn't win I had fun eating all those delicious local mangoes. Job well done to the organizers of the event on another successful year.
