[PLP Chairperson Dawn Simmons’ Cup Match message]
Dear Fellow Bermudians,
As we approach the beloved Cup Match holiday, a time filled with excitement, tradition, and community spirit, the Progressive Labour Party wishes everyone a joyful and safe celebration. This year, we proudly commemorate the 190th anniversary of Emancipation, a milestone that underscores the deep historical significance of this event. Cup Match is more than just a cricket match; it’s a cherished occasion for us to come together, honour our heritage, and enjoy the company of family and friends.
Celebrating Our Heritage
Cup Match is a celebration of our rich heritage, reflecting on Emancipation Day and Mary Prince Day, honouring our journey towards freedom and equality. As this year marks 190 years of Emancipation, it is a testament to our enduring spirit and unity. It’s a time to remember our past, celebrate our present, and look forward to a brighter future for all Bermudians.
Togetherness and Unity
The spirit of Cup Match is one of unity and togetherness. Let us use this holiday to foster goodwill, spread joy, and support one another. As we enjoy the cricket matches, beach outings, and family gatherings, let us also remember to be considerate of our neighbours and the environment.
Celebrate responsibly, stay safe, and make wonderful memories with your loved ones. Together, we can ensure that Cup Match remains a time of joy, reflection, and unity for generations to come.
Prioritizing Safety
While we embrace the festivities, we must also prioritize safety. Here are some important tips to ensure a safe and enjoyable Cup Match:
- 1. Stay Hydrated and Sun-Safe: With the summer sun at its peak, remember to stay hydrated and protect yourself from the sun. Wear sunscreen, hats, and sunglasses, and drink plenty of water throughout the day.
- 2. Road Safety: Whether you are driving or walking, please be mindful of road safety. Do not drink and drive, and always be vigilant for pedestrians and cyclists.
Use this time to strengthen family bonds and connect with your community. Celebrate responsibly and ensure that our youth understand the significance of Cup Match and its historical importance to Bermuda.
