Packed with informative and entertaining features and articles, the Summer 2010 issue of the BARP Magazine Fifty Plus completed delivery to members during the month of August courtesy of our friends at Insurance Corporation of Barbados Limited who sponsored the cost of packaging and posting yet again!
Elegant and stylish as ever, Marvo Manning graces the cover of this issue, her innate beauty captured by photographer Risee Chaderton with the cover story written by Cynthia Wilson.
The magazine also includes articles on how to protect yourself during the hurricane season; a survival guide to house building, refurbishment and repairs; discovering ways to alleviate pain; getting to know more about the many services provided by welfare agencies in Barbados; a fascinating interview with three prominent doctors who express their views about health care in Barbados and a profile of two of the participants in the Senior Games of 2010.
All the regular features are there too, like Afternoons Out, Caribbean Island Getaways, From Kitchen to Table, On the Bookshelf, Money Matters and our competition in which there are five chances to win a year’s subscription to the Advocate Newspaper. And of course there is the BARP Diary, packed with news of all that has been happening since the last issue, including the release of the BARP Song, “Nothing Can Stop Us Now” which is available free for download on this website.
As BARP members will know, the magazine is free, but for non-members, copies are available priced just $10 from the BARP office, Days Bookstore in
