1960 Olympian Honoured

bust of Barbados’ first Olympic medalist James ‘Jim’ Wedderburn now takes pride of place at the Barbados Olympic Association (BOA) Museum. It was unveiled today at a brief ceremony attended by Wedderburn, who won a bronze medal as part of the British West Indies 1 600-metre relay team at the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome, Italy.
