Four of America’s hottest deejays will help the nation’s oldest HBCU athletic conference begin the countdown to it’s march to Charm City with a day party in cyberspace.
Visit Baltimore and the CIAA, the nation’s first Black athletic conference, will host the CIAA Virtual Vibe day party Saturday, June 20 that will be streamed live on the conference’s YouTube, Instagram and Facebook platforms from 3-7 p.m. E.S.T.
Radio One personality DJ Quicksilva and DJ Envy from Revolt TV’s “Breakfast Club” will be joined by DJs Tanz and DJ Darrell Krush, all of whom will try to create the day party experience that drew so many fans to Charlotte, North Carolina over the past decade to generate funds for the CIAA’s General Scholarship fund.
Each DJ will spin music for fans for an hour, targeting four specific conference schools, while trying to uplift the spirit of HBCU sports fans and alumni by connecting them through this multi-platform social media experience the day before summer officially begins.
During the party, each CIAA school’s fan base will also be encouraged to join in the event by sharing memories of their HBCU college experience and by making donations that will be spread among conference schools.
The CIAA’s Virtual Vibe day party is part of a week long pre-summer fundraising campaign to help resolve financial challenges those institutions are facing while recovering from the impact of the pandemic.
