Track & field legend Usain Bolt recently hosted his annual Christmas treat in Trelawny.
The eight-time Olympic gold-medallist transformed the community into a festive paradise filled with joy rides, music and gifts.
“Just a kid from the country!!!” said Bolt, who hails from Sherwood Content in the parish, on his Instagram page.
“Always a joy to give back to my community. No matter what, I will never forget where I’m from,” he added.
Bolt, who retired from the sport in 2017, still currently holds world records in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m and is the only man to win three consecutive Olympic sprint doubles.
