An Independence Family Fun Day was held on Saturday, 14 July, 2012 at McTyre Park in the City of West Park, Florida and was supported by many Bahamians who came from as far north as Stuart, Florida to as far south as Homestead.
Also attending the Family Fun Day were Congresswoman Frederica Wilson, State Representatives Hazelle Rogers and Perry Thurston, Mayor Eric Jones and members of the Caribbean Consular Corps. Attendees were feted with music by the Royal Bahamas Police Force Pop Band, a local band called Togetherness and a Junkanoo Review.
A vast array of Bahamian cuisine including stuffed snapper, the usual conch fritters, conch salad and guava duff, was enjoyed by all.
