THE
LADIES
AT
TRAXX
GIRLS
and
Another
Family
Affair
are
constantly
working
to
reinvent
themselves,
which
shows
most
notably
in
their
regularly
revamped
weekly
schedules
and
themes.
Traxx
Girls’
Megan
Leigh
looks
at
it
as
a
way
to
keep
the
ladies
who
attend
their
parties
on
their
toes,
and
July’s
Freaknik-themed
parties
are
no
exception.
The
events
are
in
no
way
associated
with
previous
incarnations
of
the
name
“Freaknik,”
but
Leigh
says
the
infamous
annual
event
had
a
fun
association
that
she
thinks
Traxx
Girls’
patrons
will
relate
to.
“It’s
hot,
and
Freaknik
is
usually
really
hot,
so
we
felt
like
it
meshed
well,”
she
says.
As
part
of
Traxx
Girls’
Freaknik
July
line-up,
the
promoters
present
special
editions
of
their
weekly
Frisky
Fridays
parties
at
Club
Miami.
Following
a
July
4
Wet
T-shirt
Contest,
the
parties
pick
up
on
themes
like
Fashion
Takeover
and
Beach
Party,
as
well
as
a
cue
from
Traxx
Girls’
Sunday
night
event,
Showtime.
For
Fashion
Takeover,
Leigh
says
she
and
her
fellow
coordinators
like
to
give
up-and-coming
Atlanta
designers
a
chance
to
show
off
their
styles.
“I’m
not
sure
what
designers
it’ll
be
yet,
but
it’s
a
short
fashion
show,
fashion
friendly,"
she
adds.
"It’ll
be
lots
of
different
styles
and
looks.”
As
far
as
Beach
Party
is
concerned,
Leigh
promises
hot
ladies
showing
off
swimwear
for
cash
prizes,
which
never
fails
to
please
Traxx
Girls'
patrons.
IN
ADDITION
TO
fashion
shows
and
contests,
Frisky
Fridays
also
feature
performances.
Due
to
limited
time,
performers
must
test
their
mettle
at
Traxx
Girls’
aforementioned
Sunday
night
throwdown,
Showtime,
hosted
by
V103
radio
personality
Ms.
Sophia.
“On
Fridays,
we
have
very
short
shows,”
she
says,
“so
you
can’t
really
be
new.
You
have
to
perform
on
Sundays
first
to
perform
on
Fridays.”
Showtime
features
talent
of
all
types.
“It’s
a
variety
show,
so
we
have
lip
syncers,
imitators,"
she
says.
"We
have
live
entertainers
like
rappers
and
performers;
we
have
exotic
dancers;
we
have
regular
dancers
that
have
routines
they
want
to
come
show
off.
"Anything
goes.
If
you
want
to
show
off
your
talent,
this
is
where
you
come
and
do
that.”
Traxx
Girls
also
introduces
two
new
nights
to
its
weekly
line-up
in
July.
Monday
night’s
Amateur
Contest
at
the
Body
Tap
features
cash
prizes
for
the
crowd-favorite
amateur
dancer,
and
Thursday’s
Fever
features
wine,
martinis,
and
tapas.
Leigh
says
the
July
events
all
add
up
to
nothing
less
than
an
awesome
month
for
the
ladies.
“Lots
and
lots
of
work,
but
very
exciting,"
she
says.
"I
know
all
the
events
are
going
to
be
very
hot,
and
people
are
going
to
have
so
much
fun.
They
come
to
our
parties
to
have
fun,
dance
all
night,
have
fun
with
their
friends,
and
hang
out.
It’s
great.”
