Title Sponsor Scotia Private Client Group upped the social ante Sunday last, April 10, at the Jamaica Open — From St Barth’s to Kingston.
Specially invited HNW customers were feted under Sharon Thomas-styled tents as they, in-between chukkas, dined on Suzanne Couch fare, feigned indifference to the calorie count as they satiated their sweet cravings at Colin Hylton’s sweet table.
With the best of Appleton and perfect crisp notes from Bin 26 along with the pulsating sounds of DJ Patris Gero, living life like it’s golden seemed just a tad more probable.
