Our first
student came to our intervention
program at Spanish Town Citizens Against Gun
Violence when we first started out.
Here is a young man who not only excelled,
he listened, he learned and he performed.
He did so very well in our intervention
program and has now migrated to the United
States where he is in college.

The
Spanish
Town Iron Bridge, which spans the Rio Cobre
river at the eastern end of Spanish Town,
can be seen from the Stubbs Bridge that is
currently being used. The abutment of the
bridge is constructed with cut stone while
the bridge is cast iron. It is about 81ft
long and 15ft wide.
This
bridge, erected in 1801, at a cost of four
thousand pounds is the oldest bridge of its
kind in the Western Hemisphere. |
