mayor's message

Carabram, Brampton’s Multicultural Festival, celebrated 25 years in 2007 and we are excited to celebrate our next 25 years! We are looking forward to a wonderful festival with lots of special surprises this year.

July 11, 12 and 13 you can explore 7 continents and satisfy all your senses. Carabram will be bursting at the seams with culinary, musical and cultural treats to satisfy everyone. Our goal is to promote a forum of learning, understanding and appreciation of the multicultural nature of Brampton.

In 2007, Carabram had over 50,000 visitors at 16 different pavilions across the city. Each pavilion showcases the culture of their country or region of origin through food, music, song, dance and cultural display. The participating pavilions last year were: Bulgaria, Canada, Caribbean, Croatia, Germany, Hawaii, India, Ireland, Italy, Macedonia, Myanmar, Pakistan, Philippines, Poland, Portugal and Ukraine.

We, of course, could not do this without the generous support of the business community in and around Brampton. For this reason we have enclosed a list of sponsorship opportunities for your consideration. Please take a few moments to read through this material and think about how you can participate.

We will contact you in the near future regarding sponsorship opportunities and answer any questions you may have. Please don’t hesitate to contact Robyn McHaffie at (416) 525-6747 or dmchaffie@sympatico.ca. We look forward to your support of this terrific event and thank you in advance.

Respectfully yours,

 

Angela Johnson
