COMMUNITY groups and other organisations joined the Portland Municipal Corporation for its Labour Day project Monday, which saw a new ticketing booth being constructed at the popular Carder Park in the parish.

From as early as 7:30 am, volunteers, including employees of the Portland Municipal Corporation, contestants in the Miss Portland Festival Queen Competition, and personnel from the Social Development Commission, braved the rain to lend a hand on the project, as well as perform other remedial works on the property.

Parish Manager for SDC Portland, Karl Coke, explained the significance of a ticketing booth to the sport park.
