THE FIRST annual DJ cookout ever held in this country took place recently at Church Street, La Romaine. The event was hosted by Kool System DJ and Kool System Friends and Family Membership Club which is under the management of Moses and Shelly Noor.

In all, six DJ’s and their crews took part in the cookout, including “Duck When We Come” from St Margaret’s , Keldon Noor’s “Intense”, Trevor Dowlat’s “Curry Crew”, Kepell Bakhar and Romario Noor with “Pork-Q-Pine”, Llannel Boodlal and Kyle Kalicharen.

After hours of preparation and cooking and grilling and even decorating their tables for the presentation part of the competition, the judges had the tough job of choosing the winner. “Intense” placed first , with “Duck When We Come”, in second place and in third place, “Curry Crew”. “Duck When We Come”also won the special “People’s Choice” Award.

Kool System was established in 1990 by Moses Noor, whose passion is to play music and train aspiring young DJs. His main goal for having activities such as the cookout is to keep young people involved in positive activity and away from crime.

Upcoming events for the Christmas season include a Children’s Christmas Treat and a Dance Class in the form of a party.
