Basking in the Glow

Topping off a nice carnival weekend was the Glow party. I was glad to see a big turn out considering it was the same night as the festival and I thought that most people would have been tired. Most came out in their white ready to party and I believe they weren't disappointed. Allyuh real lime dis weekend boy!!

CHARLOTTE CARIBBEAN FESTIVAL


The festival this year was a great success. People looked like they were having a good time, enjoying the food, music, crafts and everything else. Congratulations to Lee 2 Productions on their King of the band title for their presentation "Jewels of the Caribbean, ThunderbirdsCLT on their queen of the band and best kiddies band title for their portrayal of "Out of Africa" and most importantly, Band of the year Image Mas Camp "Beauty of the Rainforest", it was very well deserved. Let's come out bigger and better next year Charlotte, and tell ah frien'.

The Beginning

Ok here's the thing, it is my goal to have an online venue where all Caribbean people living in North Carolina and surrounding, have one single site where they can get info on almost everything Caribbean. I'm tired of having to search high and low to find out what's happening in the West Indian community. So in creating this blog I hope to showcase all the happenings, news, restaurants, nightlife etc. Anything Caribbean you should find it here. Hope you enjoy.
