The Heritage Month and Bermuda Day theme for 2015 will be “Bermuda, An Atlantic Garden,” the 2016 theme will be “Our Sporting Heritage,” while the 2017 theme will be “Bermuda, The Roots Within”.
The 2016 theme of “Our Sporting Heritage” — which coincides with an Olympic year — will focus on sports and our sporting heroes.
Minister Scott said, “This theme encourages us as a people to come together and celebrate the accomplishments of some of our notable sporting figures such as our Olympic participants, Football players, Boat Racers, Tennis players, Cricketers, Swimmers, Marathon runners, Cyclists and many other outstanding sports persons.”
THE Minister concluded, “I note that 2016 is an Olympic year, and no doubt there are several Bermudians who aspire to be among those that qualify to compete in the Summer Olympic Games to be held in Brazil. I think the theme of Our Sporting Heritage could serve as a motivator for such persons.”
