For the second year in a row, Granby Racial Reconciliation is happy that Lady Carrie, executive director of Jada Foundation CT Double Dutch League, accepted its invitation to direct the Double Dutch exposition at the Granby Racial Unity Festival Saturday, June 29. Her program was well received at last year’s Granby Celebrates Juneteenth Arts and Education Festival.

Lady Carrie is the CT state representative for the American Double Dutch League. She was instrumental in bringing the 2019 World Invitational Double Dutch Exhibition back to Connecticut at the Star Hill Family Athletics Center in Tolland. The Double Dutch Exhibition welcomed jumpers from all over the world.

Lady Carrie’s motto is “I can teach anybody how to jump.” Participants at last year’s event can attest to her skill and enthusiasm and the great fun had by all.

This year, Lady Carrie has invited a friend from Hollywood to join her. Celebrity, actor and director of television shows and feature films, Dennis L.A. White will be joining the festivities.
