THE Bahamas’ Men’s 4 x 400m Relay Olympic gold medal team was treated to a heroes’ welcome in Eleuthera on Wednesday, with a motorcade through the streets and the renaming of a main thoroughfare in honour of the team’s captain, Chris Brown.
Beginning with a breakfast at Tingum Village, followed by a motorcade throughout the island, the team then travelled into Wemyss’ Bight, the home of Chris Brown, where a street was re-named Chris ‘Fireman’ Brown Blvd.
At the ribbon cutting ceremony were Brown’s parents Harcourt and Nola Brown, Minister of Youth, Sports and Culture Dr Daniel Johnson and the Member of Parliament for Central and South Eleuthera, Minister of State for Legal Affairs Damien Gomez.
