Development Bank sponsors Merv-Ann Thompson for C43 Queen Pageant

By: Peter Ngunjiri, Press Release

    CHARLESTOWN, NEVIS (July 3, 2017) -- The Development Bank of St. Kitts and Nevis (DBSKN) continues to partner with the relevant stakeholders to ensure the continued growth of the Federation’s culture. It has, as a result, renewed its commitment to the Nevis Culturama Festival by sponsoring one of the Miss Culture Queen contestants for 2017.

     

    “The festival is rightly referred to as the Caribbean Greatest Summer Lime and as this year’s edition dubbed C43 kicks off, we at the Development Bank of St. Kitts and Nevis are proud to have partnered with the Culturama Committee,” said Ms Hyacinth Pemberton, manager of the Nevis branch of the Development Bank of St. Kitts and Nevis.
     
    “As the proud sponsor of the reigning Miss Culture Queen, Ms Clayticia Daniel, our involvement this year is to affirm our commitment to the development of the culture of Nevis and its proud people. With another confident contestant, Ms Merv-Ann, who is being chaperoned by Dr Kamara Louisy who is a former Ms Culture we are again hoping to capture the crown.”
     
    Ms Thompson, who was recently introduced to the staff at the Nevis branch of the Development Bank of St. Kitts and Nevis, is no stranger to pageants having taken part in last year’s Miss Culture Swimwear Pageant where she copped the first runner-up position.
     
    The dynamic 24-year old Ms Thompson who currently works as an office assistant at an offshore company in Nevis is also the President of the Nevis Drag Racing Club and according to her media profile, she is very curious about life and enjoys reading and researching areas of interest such as cars and fashion.
     
    “As an advocate for developing the qualities of strong women, she supports the St. Kitts based group Hope Tears which provides support and assistance to women in abusive and volatile relationships,” states her media profile. “With this in mind, Merv-Ann has set a personal goal to attain training in the field of Social Welfare and Psychology in the near future.”
     
    When asked what strategy she will employ to ensure a back-to-back win for Development Bank, she said: “How I plan to achieve it? It is by doing my best on the night of the show and that is what really counts. I would try my best to make sure that the crown stays here.”
     
    Ms Thompson’s chaperone Dr Kamara Louisy is no stranger to the Development Bank of St. Kitts and Nevis, having chaperoned another of the bank’s sponsored contestants Ms Santonnya Mills who was crowned Miss Culture Queen in 2011. An accomplished chaperone, Dr Louisy is confident that her contestant is ready for the competition that will be held on Sunday August 6 at the Cultural Complex.
     
    “Merv-Ann is very determined - a very hard worker sometimes too hard on herself but in that way it is a good thing because I do not have to push her too much,” said Dr Louisy. “She is focused on what she has to do. It is not her first foray in the pageant arena in Nevis as last year she was first runner-up in Miss Culture Swimwear. I think that was just her testing ground to see if she could manage Miss Culture Pageant.”
     
    Concluded the chaperone: “I like to work with smart girls. Merv-Ann has her head on, and she is working diligently towards attaining the crown. I have given Development Bank a Queen so that is my aim to do it again. I am trying my best to see if we could repeat it.”
