Trench Town is located in Kingston, the capital of Jamaica. In the 1960s, Trench
Town was known as the Hollywood of Jamaica. Today, Trench Town is the
location of the Trench Town Culture Yard Museum, a National Heritage Site
presenting the unique history and contribution of Trench Town to Jamaica. 
The birthplace of rocksteady and reggae music, as well as the home of reggae and
Rastafari ambassador Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, and Bunny Wailer. The
neighborhood gets its name from its previous designation as Trench Pen, 400 acres
of land once used for livestock by Daniel Power Trench, an Irish immigrant of the
18th century (descendants of the Earls of Clancarty). The Trench family
abandoned the land in the late 19th century.
The new residences consisted of one- and two-story 'knog' buildings, built in
clusters or around a central courtyard with communal cooking and bathroom
facilities. The residences became the famous Government Yards of Trench Town.
Knog construction refers to a labor-intensive traditional method of construction
where a timber-frame structure is in-filled with brick or rubble then covered with a
wire mesh and plastered. The architecture used was that of a rural Caribbean
vernacular with hip roofs and wide verandas. Trench Town was a planned
community with a hierarchical grid of streets and central sewage and garbage
disposal systems.
Trench Town is home to the communities of Wilton Gardens [Rema], Federal
Gardens, Arnett Gardens [Jungle], Havana, Buckers and others. Trench Town
today is also the home of two of Jamaica's top Premier Football League club teams,
Arnett Gardens and Boys' Town.
Now in 2022, Trench Town comes alive in a new Series of paintings dubbed “The
Trench Town Rock Experience” done by a native of Trench Town, Errol
McKinson. Errol spent several years of his childhood growing up, playing soccer
in the Premier Football League and later became a professional recording/mixing
engineer working among some of the now-famous faces of Trench Town.
Throughout those years, Errol has gained a tremendous amount of life experience
from the culture to Roots Rock Reggae. The series of paintings was previously
exhibited at several organizations throughout the Washington Metropolitan DC
area, including the Embassy of Jamaica, Washington DC. Trench Town Rock
Experience consists of a total of over 24 paintings created at Errol’s art studio
located in Suburban Maryland. His gallery can be visited at

Scholarship Opportunities

Our jobs aren’t just about putting food in boxes that our guests will enjoy.
Instead, we want to build an experience that is memorable and unique – with
food and drinks on the side. Our Guest Service Experts take the initiative and
deliver a wide range of services to make sure that guests enjoy their meal.
Whether setting tables, communicating with the kitchen, interacting and
serving guests, or cleaning work areas and supplies, the Guest Service Expert
makes transactions feel like part of the experience.
No matter what position you are in, there are a few things that are critical to
success – creating a safe workplace, following company policies and
procedures, upholding quality standards, and ensuring your uniform, personal
appearance, and communications are professional. Guest Service Experts will
be on their feet and moving around (stand, sit, or walk for an extended time;
moving over sloping, uneven, or slippery surfaces), managing the menu (read
and visually verify information), and taking a hands-on approach to work (move,
lift, carry, push, pull, and place objects weighing less than or equal to 25
pounds without assistance and 50 pounds with assistance; reach overhead and
below the knees, including bending, twisting, pulling, and stooping). Doing all
these things well (and other reasonable job duties as requested) is critical for
Guest Service Experts – to get it right for our guests and our business each and
every time.
