An Amazing 'Irie' Weekend
I recently headed down to Miami to participate in the Simply Fit Irie Weekend. This is DJ Irie's celebrity weekend that benefits the Miami Big Brothers and Big Sisters program.
Irie is a good friend of mine so when he invited me out again this year I did not hesitate to accept the offer. The weekend consisted of parties DJ'd by Timbaland, a golf tourney with the likes of Alonzo Mourning, Alfonso Ribeiro, and the homies Jonathon Wesley and Chris Kirkpatrick.
After the tourney is a dinner gala featuring a silent auction and this year special guest Ne-Yo serenaded the crowd. I was teamed up for the golf tourney with CBS 4 news anchor Jawan Strader, WSVN 7 sports reporter Donavan Campbell, and WSVN 7 sports producer Anthony Biase (aka, Roddick, look at the picture, nuff said). So in the 90 degree heat and 1000 percent humidity the "Media Moguls" stormed the course and did some damage......literally.
I have to say this was truly a fun day at the course. Fun? Yes. Victorious? Umm.......not so much. DJ's on the course brings a different element to the game. Teeing off while "lollipop" plays during your swing is quite the experience. Needless to say whenever you get a chance to have a good time while giving back to the community it's really a great experience.
CLICK HERE to check out some of the footage from the tourney, hope you enjoy it and please start making plans to join us next year.
Good times, good people, good gracious it's a party for a cause in Miami, do I really have to say anything else? Didn't think so........
