12 days of Christmas Red Cross Remix

Share

The San Pedro Belize Red Cross (SPBRC) are feeling the jolly holidays, even going as far as creating their own remix to the popular Christmas carol, 12 Days of Christmas. Written by photographer Karen Brodie and sung by members of the SPBRC and friends, the 12 Day’s of Christmas Red Cross Remix reminisces on the work done by the non-profit.
Lending their melodious voices for the jingle were Brittney O’Daniel, Shirlee Arnould, Jane West, Melody Wolfe and Sean Connors. After a few rehearsal sessions, the group was even able to professionally record the remix with the help of Ralf West from Reef TV/Radio. SPBRC officially debuted the song during the 2015 Holiday Lighted Boat Parade.50 San Pedro Red Cross Twelve Days of Christmas (1)
