Jam Cruise 22 Day of Service & Celebration

We have planned an action-packed day of service, cultural connection, community celebration and music!

This year, Positive Legacy is joining forces with the Rotary Club of Grand Turk to bring much‑needed infrastructure to the Eliza Simons Primary School as part of Jam Cruise 22.

As part of The Oasis Project, we will be helping to transform the school’s outdoor space into a safe, functional, and welcoming environment for students. Together, we’ll work on the basketball court resurfacing, refresh the landscape and complete some repairs and help to restore the school's gardens.

While volunteers are hard at work, our friends at the Moog Foundation will engage the students in the art and science of sound through a Dr. Bob’s SoundSchool experience. To cap off the day, Matt Butler will lead an unforgettable Everyone Orchestra performance featuring Jam Cruise musicians and local artists—Island style, of course.

Activities for the day will include:

• Resurface and repaint the basketball court
• Garden Restoration
• Landscaping & grounds repair
• Dr. Bob’s SoundSchool
• Lunch & live music

TICKET COST

• $100 in advance
• $125 on board (if available)

*The revenue from ticket sales help to offset the costs associated with the Day of Service, including supplies and materials, transportation, food, payments for local cooks and musicians, sponsoring kids and families to celebrate with us, etc.

Why it matters

In 2017, Hurricanes Irma and Maria devastated the school, destroying key buildings including the students’ lunch shed (covered outdoor area). While a concrete slab remains, the school still needs a roof and seating to restore a proper, shaded eating area. By upgrading the lunch shed and extending the playground, we can give students a safe, joyful place to eat, play, and thrive.

All additional donations received will be dedicated toward our Match Campaign to complete the $25,000 needed to fully fund The Oasis Project. While a concrete slab for the lunch shed already exists, the school requires a roof and seating to create a proper shaded eating area. The current playground space is narrow and already contains some equipment; therefore, the plan is to extend it and install one large Skyfort Swing Set to maximize the area safely without overcrowding.

Positive Legacy will MATCH EVERY DOLLAR RAISED up to $12.500!

Your generosity will create a lasting dining and recreational resource for the children, promoting health, well‑being, and community for years to come. Together, we can leave a positive legacy for the young people of Grand Turk!
