Jammin' with Jamdammers
published: Friday | June 22, 2007


Our camera is not worthy to have such beauty bestowed upon it. So we say a big thanks to (from left) Breanna Rae, Amanda Rae and Rachel Smith, just a trio of the smoking hot lasses at the Jamdammers Running Club party marathon 2007.

Everybody loves a good party and Jamdammers Club of Kingston provided a great one in Norbrook last Saturday.

The event was the Jamdammers' annual party marathon, and this year the spacious enclave that houses the American International School in Kingston provided ample room. And did they need it! There was a huge dance floor laid out over the sprawling lawn, and though it might have looked huge at the beginning when most partygoers hadn't showed up yet, by the time the groove really got going, there was no space left.

DJ kept them moving

So the group members and a whole host of guests traded their running shoes for dancing shoes as the DJ kept them shifting from one musical genre to the next. Imagine for a half hour or so, you're in a disco with techno music. By the time the hands on the timepiece swung around to one o'clock, it was soaking wet soca fete with some Latin rhythms. In between there were many of those dance tunes made famous over the decades from continued rotation at parties like this one.

The seemingly endless dancing was in keeping with the 'marathon' name of the party, guests needed all energy they could muster. Hope the neighbours didn't mind too much though, as this party went on until the morning hours.

Spotted in the crowd were: Rodney and Nadja Davis; Gregory and Michelle Mayne; Peter and Donnia Bovell; Wayne Kirkpatrick; Allison Peart; Debra Taylor; Andrew Price; Ed Khoury; Marsha-Ann Hay; Michael and Angie Ammar; Robbie and Odette Epstein; Adrien Lemaire; Carlos Philpots; David McConnell; Lisa Bell; Suzie Benjamin and Vinay Walia, and scores more.

Andrew Rousseau (left) and John Leiba somehow could hear each other over the music that was thumping.


COK's general manager, Brenda Cuthbert, and husband Fred never shy away from the dance floor, and with moves like these, why should they?


The bartenders had to 'work them han' fast' as guests had to keep hydrated from all that dancing.


We're not sure if it was too much energy drinks or just a never-ending reservoir of energy, but Tracy-Ann Anderson literally danced all night.
