LIME has honored St Lucian champion high-jumper Levern Spencer by featuring her on the 2010 Services Directory. The directory was officially unveiled on Tuesday at the Babonneau Primary School.
For years, the launch of the Services Directory has been an event looked forward to by the public. Not only is it a vital source of residential and business telephone numbers and service listings, the LIME (and Cable & Wireless) Services Directories have been used to pay tribute to St Lucians who have made outstanding contributions to the country’s cultural, socioeconomic, artistic and sporting development.
Levern Spencer is the youngest St Lucian to date who has been featured on the cover. This places her in the ranks of St Lucian greats like Derek Walcott, Dame Sessene Descartes, Sir Dunstan St Omer, Barbara Cadet and Ronald Boo Hinkson whose faces have also graced the directory cover.
“Levern is the second St Lucian to be featured on a Services Directory reflecting the LIME brand. Having her on the cover is not only a tribute to her outstanding achievements, but a demonstration of faith in the ability of St Lucia’s youths to reach the top and excel,” said LIME Country Manager, Sean Auguste.
Originally from Babonneau, Levern attended Babonneau Primary, Entrepot Secondary, Albany State College and University of Georgia. Her High Jump records include the St Lucia national record and records for CARICOM, CARIFTA Games and Central American & Caribbean Senior Championships.
Several times Sportswoman of the Year for St. Lucia, she is an NCAA, CAC and NACAC champion. Levern was the only St Lucian to qualify for the 2009 IAAF World Championships in Athletics. For the 2010 indoor season she is ranked third in the Americas and second in the British Commonwealth for her event.
In recognition of her world-class athletic talent, and to help her continue her sporting career, LIME is currently providing Levern with sponsorship support.
This year, once again, the LIME Services Directory has comprehensive residential and business telephone numbers, restaurant menus, a comprehensive listing of community services, lots of informative ads, plus updates on LIME products and services.
Copies of 2010 Services Directory are available at all LIME outlets and also at credit unions and post offices.
