Good Afternoon everyone!
Today marks the commencement of a very special merger and it is good that we are all here to witness it. On this day we formerly mold all that we are as a Virgin Islands community and people with a vital part of our economy. This is a fitting and right partnership and I wish to first and foremost commend the visionaries behind this plan.

My people of the Virgin Islands, Good Day and God’s Blessings to all of you. Today is August 1, 2020, another day in this history of the emancipation in the Virgin Islands.
Under the theme, “The March Toward Greater Autonomy: Shaping Collective Pride”, Territory Day focused on self-governance and its history here in the Virgin Islands.
People of the Virgin Islands, Good Day and God’s Blessings to all of you.
Today is an important day in the life and legacy of Virgin Islanders and the Virgin Islands.
It is Territory Day!
Virgin Islands Day!
The observance of Territory Day is usually marked with us putting on a display of our culture and talents, followed by a ceremonial gathering that includes speeches, poems, historical readings and other forms of reflections.
Good day and God’s blessings to the people of the Virgin Islands. The year 2020 has been a year of many firsts. COVID-19 has forced us to do things in a very creative way; I welcome you to our first Virtual Celebration of Territory Day.
