Hundreds of Dominicans and visitors are expected to flood Roseau tonight Monday, February 5, 2018, for the annual Lagoon Street Jam.
Band leader of the Swing Stars and Chief Organizer of the event, Norman Letang said they are set and ready for the action.
“As usual we think that this year’s 2018 Lagoon street Jam is going to be very big,” he said. “I always try to estimate the crowd and it is usually about 5,000. This year, because of the situation, it will start earlier and we may very well get more people. I am looking forward to seeing the thousands of people who will be at the event.”
He also stated that as usual, the Swinging Stars will be at the Stardom Tent which will also be having the Monarch of the tent this week February 7, 2018.
“Last year was “massive” and this year should be even bigger…we have lots of Dominicans who are back home who will want to see and hear the calypsos. We need to tell people that on Carnival Sunday afternoon we will be in Layou with Triple Kay and on Carnival Monday we will be in Mahaut but on Carnival Tuesday we will be on the streets of Roseau from 10am to 6pm,” he stated.
The Lagoon Street Jam begins at 8:00 pm.
It is this annoying person again! And he will tell you after you have taken a good look at the photo. Is this really fun? In our world it is! Because this is the world of the Devil! People, our strength lies in how much we can depend on the Holy Spirit to endure till the very end.
This world has nothing compared to what is planned for us…..BUT He cannot force us! After our numerous acts of disobedience like mine, i have come to realize that God exists and He is real!
you see, we were created to worship so we must worship someone or something! Whether it is the Holy God, our car, a woman, or the devil himself. Every one of us worships something or someone!
But i must say thank God for His mercy and grace that i can speak today to those who are yet to yield. Some will and some will just not be moved.
It is so sad. If only we knew the depth of God’s love for us. Such that He comes after us through our conscience and we rebel. Grace and mercy. His arms are still wide open.
8pm is earlier? They could have started at 6:30PM. Safety 1st people.
