Euroshowdance Gib 2015 Info.Pdf MESSAGE FROM THE MINISTER FOR CULTURE THE HONOURABLE STEVEN LINARES MP Gibraltar wholeheartedly welcomes all participants to the 2015 European Show Dance Championships, under the auspices of the International Dance Organization, which we are proud to host in our homeland. After the very successful, European Show Dance Championships in July 2011, all Gibraltarians sincerely hope you return to Gibraltar and have a pleasant and exciting time with us as our special guests. In Gibraltar we have always considered dance as an important part of our lives, this being proven by the high number of active participants throughout the many dance academies in which we actively partake. Therefore, we will always welcome with open arms all cultural associations as important visitors to our Rock in the hope that their praiseworthy contributions will help enrich and develop our capabilities. H.M. Government of Gibraltar knowingly recognises the benefits derived from participation in dance at all levels including those organised by the International Dance Organisation, and our continued support towards the many events organised in Gibraltar are seen as very much an integral part of this recognition. We are most grateful for the privilege afforded to us by the International Dance Organisation to host the 2015 European Show Dance Championships, organised by the Gibraltar National Dance Organisation. I take this opportunity to invite all IDO dancers, their choreographers and officials to Gibraltar and join us in this amazing event.

    PRESS RELEASE No: 451/2017 Date: 19th July 2017 Rags to Riches As part of this year’s GSLA’s summer programme, the Gibraltar Youth Service once again promoted the traditional arts and crafts week. Over the last two weeks a group of 22 youngsters have been taking part in the Rags to Riches project held at the Youth Centre. The idea of the project is to get old items of clothing and upcycle (recycle and renew) them into trendy items. All items of clothing were donated by Club House Gibraltar. Throughout the project young people took part in a series of different workshops, giving them the skills to customise their items. These included, tie die, fringing and adjusting. Alongside this there were lots of team building opportunities and confidence boosting activities and for the participants to get to know each other while having fun. The culmination of the project took place via a show case at the Youth Centre patio, where the young people had a chance to show off their creations to parents, family members and friends. Also present at the event was the Minister for Youth, the Hon Steven Linares, Miss Gibraltar 2017 Jodie Garcia and her two princesses, Tessa Britto and Sian Dean. The evening was combined with a photo booth, a gallery of their designs and a BBQ, with all pro- ceeds of the evening having been donated to Club House Gibraltar. For any general information about the Gibraltar Youth Service please contact Mark Zammit, Prin- cipal Youth Officer on [email protected] or call 20078637.

El sondeo predice 10 escaños en el Parlamento para la Alianza, seis para el GSD y uno para Together Gibraltar. Excluyendo los votos en blanco y los “no sabe”, que no se cuentan en una elección, la encuesta personal a 622 votantes encontró que el 63,5% apoyaría al GSLP/Liberales, el 21,7% al GSD y el 14,1% a Together Gibraltar. Los candidatos independientes Robert Vásquez y John Charles Pons obtendrían el 0,4% y el 0,3% de los votos, respectivamente. El número de "no sabe" y votos en blanco en la encuesta general fue bajo, de sólo 2,7% y 0,46% respectivamente. Si se incluyen en el análisis global, los porcentajes se reducirían ligeramente hasta el 61,51% para el GSLP/Liberales, el 20,99% para la GSD y el 13,68% para Together Gibraltar. El sondeo, que fue realizado para la Crónica por Sonia Golt y su equipo durante un período de cuatro días a principios de esta semana, preguntó a los encuestados si votarían en bloque y, si no, cómo dividirían sus votos.
