Linden town week culminates today, with the eagerly anticipated Bikers Fest, which was scheduled for Friday last, but had to be postponed, due to inclement weather. The popular “Wash Down” will be going down at the Toucan mall, Amelia’s Ward.
Yesterday was the main big lime which extended to the wee hours of today.
Wismar came alive on Friday night, despite incessant showers which somehow seemed bent on washing out the festivities.
People converged in Poker Street and Burnham Drive where they used the opportunity to catch up with friends and eat, drink and gyrate to their heart’s content.
Fortunately for party aficionados, the 2.00 a.m. curfew was relaxed and so “partying till day clean” became the order of the day!
Saturday night, the Mackenzie Sports Club Ground was transformed into a sea of Black, as VYBZ Entertainment hosted their all black party.
The Linden Town week, which started out as Linden Town Day, celebrates its twenty first anniversary this year.
The idea was one conceptualized by popular Linden businessman Norville Fredericks. This year’s event was hosted by VYBZ entertainment, which has held the franchise for the past three years. It was a collaborative effort between the group and the Linden Mayor and Town Council.
Some of the events this year included fitness walks and karaoke competitions; Young Dee jays competition, football tournaments, river tours, gospel concerts ,spelling bees, essay writing competitions and a duck curry competition.
The concept parties, which undoubtedly drew the largest crowds, included the color party at Christianburg hosted by the Linden Dream Team, the All Black at the Mackenzie Sports Club Ground, all White at Shanghai’s residence and the “Big man don’t go outtta style” at the Mackenzie bandstand. The latter was hosted by popular Lindener and radio personality Gordon Moseley. It is one of the few events that catered to mature folks. (Enid Joaquin)
