The Sarnia Observer
Ontario, Canada - The sound of Kenrick Dookie's steel drumming was a new addition at this year's Canada Day celebration.
Dookie, 28, is a member of the Cambridge-based Pan Waves Steel Band that played at Sarnia's Canada Day bash Monday.
"They've always been asking us to come down to this parade and we finally had a chance to because the Cambridge parade didn't have enough spots for us this year," Dookie said.
"Things kind of came together at the last minute."
The band, largely comprised of Dookie's family members, was started in 1989 by his father - a Trinidad and Tobago native, where steel drums originated - and every year plays festivals like the Canada Day parade.
