Dear Sir,I write concerning the recent magnificent achievement by Lisa Blackburn in winning four gold medals at the recent Masters Pan Am Swimming Championships.Your newspaper provided a glowing report following the event, as did Bernews, and both your stories mentioned that she would be returning home on Sunday.I happened to be at the airport on Sunday and saw Ms Blackburn emerge from the arrivals hall. She stood at the curb obviously waiting for a lift.She was acknowledged by a gentleman standing across the street with a dog and she proudly showed him her four medals.My question is this:Where was the reception that is normally given to sports heroes when they arrive home from an international event with trophies?I would have expected someone from BASA or the Ministry of Youth and Sport to be in attendance to show their appreciation, but not a single person was there.There may have been someone inside the arrivals area to greet her, but I doubt that as they would have escorted her to the exit.I amusing this avenue to express my disappointment in the apathy shown by those who should have been there to welcome a record breaker home.DOCKYARD LACKEYSandys
