On Wednesday night the Trinidad and Tobago Olympic Committee held its 17th Annual Awards Function at the National Academy for Performing Arts in Port of Spain. The gala event under the Patronage of His Excellency Professor George Maxwell Richards TC, CMT, Ph.D. and Dr. Jean RamJohn Richards honoured the outstanding achievers in Olympic Sports and Olympism for the year 2010.
The first Annual Awards Ceremony was held at the Crown Life Building on St. Vincent Street in 1994. The event has grown in stature and prestige over the years. This would not have been possible without the support of all our stakeholders. The TTOC is deeply appreciative and acknowledges this support.
The TTOC takes this opportunity to extend thanks to the media for their presence at the Annual Awards Ceremony and their support during the year 2010. The media plays an invaluable role in the success of the TTOCs Programmes and initiatives.
On behalf of the Executive Committee and Staff of the Trinidad and Tobago Olympic Committee, I extend congratulations and best wishes to the recipients of the 2010 Annual Awards. I also take this opportunity to wish Trinidad and Tobago a Happy New Year.
