Government lights up community grounds in Black Bush, No 77 Village

The Government of Guyana continues to develop community grounds across the country.
Lesbeholden, Black Bush Polder and Number 77 Village community grounds are the latest beneficiaries.
Both grounds received lights, which were installed recently, to further develop the youths in the area.

According to a resident and former athlete in the Black Bush area, the development of the community grounds is something that he once dreamt of during his younger days.
“The work that the Government has been doing is wonderful. In my days as an athlete in Black Bush, we did not have these things in the polder.”
“In my time I didn’t had lights. I couldn’t portray my skills. Now that I have kids, they are able to do it,” he said.
In addition to the lights being installed at Lesbeholden, a pavilion was constructed, and a washroom facility and the fence were improved.
The Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport (MCYS) has noted that it remained committed to investing in the development and upgrading of grounds and sporting facilities across the country.
