August 2nd was the last Park Jam of the 2009 season and we definitely went out with a bang! We also had a few firsts… a Youth Talent Show and a live band Jah Beloved for the first time in 6 years. The weather was perfect and Polo brought out a bangin sound system so we could go out in style. Pictures say a thousand words so I’m gonna just get right into the action…
