The music sheets should be dropped off at The Daily Herald's offices on Bush Road on Monday by 5:00pm. The SCDF, since November 2010, has been announcing registration deadlines. Registration closed at the end of January. The music sheet deadline was announced subsequently for March 4.
"We have done our part by announcing everything very early for Carnival 2011 in order to properly prepare and organize our local events," President of the SCDF Stuart Johnson said. "We urge the singers to abide by the deadline for this Monday, there will be no extension after that," he added.
The calypsonians still have to start practicing with the bands that will be backing them up for the shows. With the Calypso Eliminations on April 1 and the Roadmarch competition the following day, Johnson said there is no space for extensions of deadlines anymore.
