First “Unsung Hero”: Wilfred Furbert
At yesterday’s [Feb.13] press briefing on 2011 tourism statistics, Tourism Minister Wayne Furbert introduced a new quarterly initiative called “Unsung Heroes” saying “the aim of this programme is to recognise individuals in our community who do not directly work in hospitality, but carry out deeds that impact the tourism industry.” The first ‘Unsung Hero’ is Wilfred Furbert.
