FROZEN (WINTER IN JULY)

Frozen is a fundraising party for the Commonwealth Woman’s Antarctic Expedition (CWAE).  It will be held on July 10, 2009 at Susie’s Coffee Bar, Southdale Plaza.

The CWAE is a team of 8 women from the Commonwealth countries of Brunei Darussalam, Cyprus, Ghana, India, Jamaica, New Zealand, Singapore and the United Kingdom who intend to ski to the Geographic South Pole to mark the 60th anniversary of the Commonwealth. 

They will brave blizzards, and extreme temperatures to ski across Antarctica in order to reach the South Pole. The aim of the expedition is to demonstrate the potential of greater inter-cultural understanding, raise awareness of climate change and the value of the modern Commonwealth and to highlight the achievements of women around the World.

Thus, 8 Women, 7 languages, 6 faiths, 5 continents!

The Jamaican team member is Kim-Marie Spence. She is the only team member from the Caribbean, from the Americas, from the Western Hemisphere!

The entertainment lineup includes Courtney John, who will be giving his first performance after the release of his latest album, “Made in Jamaica”. The new single, “Lucky Man”, is burning up the charts.  Also on the show will be the up and coming Hezron – with his hit single, “So In Love”.  Specially invited guests include Stephen Newland of Rootz Underground.
