The Belmont Estate Heritage Foundation was launched on March 07th,
2004 with a luncheon in honour of two Grenadians - Mr. Alister
Hughes,
journalist; and Mrs. Gertrude Protain, tourism stalwart.
The highlight of the event was the presentation
of two booklets -; Gertrude Protain - Glimpses into the
life of a Great Grenadian; and Alister Hughes, Glimpses into
the life of a Great Grenadian, written by Shadel Nyack Compton
and Paula Lewis respectively. The booklets are the first in a
series entitled Great Grenadians which would focus on
Grenadians who have made invaluable contributions to the
development of the island Published by
the Foundation, it is hoped that the series would not only educate
the public about the contributions that these Grenadians have,
made but also inspire others to become great Grenadians
themselves.
A
non-profit organisation, the Foundation was formed to preserve,
promote and encourage a deeper appreciation for Grenada's history,
heritage and creole culture through education, research, first
hand experience and interaction.
Books are on sale at the major books stores
in St. George, St. Andrew and St. Patrick as well as at Belmont
Estate.
