The Patriots Cheerleaders in St. Maarten last week.
PHILIPSBURG--The New England Patriots Cheerleaders official 2019 Swimsuit Calendar photo shoot at Divi Little Bay Beach Resort came to an end on Monday, leaving a lasting impact on the island, the resort and the visiting cheerleaders.
The Patriots Cheerleaders were in St. Maarten July 23-30 shooting their ever-popular annual swimsuit calendar and various video productions. In between shoots, the ladies met locals, dignitaries and media, and explored St. Maarten’s landmarks, culture and history through a variety of planned activities.
“When you consider the suffering this island and its people endured not long ago, and how far we’ve come in less than a year, the Patriots Cheerleaders choosing to feature our destination is really a testament to the resilience and natural beauty of St. Maarten,” said Divi Resorts President/Chief Operations Officer (COO)Marco Galaverna.
Patriots Cheerleaders Director Tracy Sormanti said on Tuesday, “The Patriots Cheerleaders have truly enjoyed their stay at the Divi Little Bay Beach Resort, with the island of St. Maarten being one of the most beautiful destinations they've ever visited. The hospitality at the resort was second to none and we're sad to leave this tropical paradise.”
The Cheerleaders had a packed schedule during their stay on the island, including a guided tour of Grand Case by the French Tourist Authority to take part in a personalised perfume experience at Tijon Parfumerie and dine on delicious cuisine at Loterie Farm.
The ladies also visited Philipsburg with the St. Maarten Tourist Bureau for a guided tour of Front Street with stops at the Courthouse, the Guavaberry Emporium, Gelateria Milano, Majesty Jewelers (where the cheerleaders received St. Maarten Alex and Ani charm bracelets), Topper’s Rhum Distillery and more.
The Official 2019 Patriots Cheerleaders Calendar goes on sale later this year.
“Our 2019 Patriots Cheerleaders Swimsuit Calendar and Sideline to Shoreline video production will be our best yet with St. Maarten as our backdrop, and we're grateful for the Divi Little Bay Beach Resort's hospitality,” Sormanti added.
