Donation of cricket gear to alma mater in Carriacou

He loved cricket with a passion and once represented Grenada on the Windward Islands Youth Cricket Team. Frank Carl Belmar continued playing cricket even after migrating to the United States and building a career in the US Navy.

Upon his passing in April 2009, Frank’s family made a decision based on his deep love for cricket. They decided to donate all his cricket gear to his alma mater, Bishop’s College. His brother, Bernard Isaac – also a past student of Bishop’s College – made the presentation on behalf of the family.

Bernard said that while Frank is missed so dearly, he is happy to make the donation to the school to assist with the development of cricket.

School Principal Rholda Quamina and students were present as teacher Gavin Moses accepted the donation, which included bats and pads.

Both Mr. Moses and Ms. Quamina expressed their appreciation to Frank Belmar’s family for the donation of the cricket gear.
