A large crowd of Grand Bahama residents came out in full force to receive the items, braving the long line that wrapped three quarters of the perimeter of the park.
The Royal Bahamas Police Force ensured that vehicular traffic congestion was kept to a minimum. RBDF and Trinidad and Tobago troops regulated the flow of persons entering and leaving the park and provided essential security.
