Conaree, St.Kitts. September 19, 2015:  On the Day of our nation’s birth and in the month in which we celebrate our National Heroes one of our local Sporting legends was honoured by his fellow villagers, the business community and his constituency representative.
Terrance “Fighting Hunks” Hunkins who at one time was Caribbean and commonwealth boxing champion was awarded a brand new Motorised Wheel chair. He suffered a serious injury to his back many years ago that has since left him chair bound. The Brand new piece of equipment was made possible by funds donated by Park Hyatt (Range development) and facilitated by Mr. Micheal Morton .
