            While visiting Scotia Plaza to hear the sound of the Silver
            Stars, be sure to head down to the concourse level for an up-
            close look at last year's costume winner of the Queen of the
            Bands competition. "The Source" is part of the Carnival Nationz
            presentation, "In Full Bloom - Fruits & Flowers" and depicts the
            sun in all its glory. Designed and built by Kenny Coombs, "The
            Source" is approximately 20' high, 35' wide and 18' deep.

            claiming top title and prize at National Panorama in Queen's Park
            Savannah in Port-of-Spain. Playing more of a Trinidad and Tobago

            support of Scotiabank Caribana, and is the only Steel Band to
            hold a Band of the Year title in Mas competition.
