Monday is a national holiday in Jamaica, and it is also the day that a special ceremony/concert is being held in Kingston to honor and celebrate the achievements of Jamaican`s olympians and para-olympians as well as the National Heroes.

Here is an article from today`s Gleaner which gives details about the concert and how to watch it (it is being streamed live on PBCJ and TVJ and on the Jamaica Information Service website). Entertainment headliners include The Jolly Boys, Beenie Man, Queen Ifrica, Marcia Griffiths, I Octane and Freddie McGregor.

Quiz - can you name all of the National Heroes. My favorite is The Right Honourable Nanny of the Maroons!
