When the sun goes down in College Park, the beats begin, running from Route 1 to campus streets to La Plata Beach at pre-football game pep rallies.
Chris Kennedy is known in the music world by his stage name, DJ Kennedy. The junior communication major is a DJ who has turned tables in College Park’s scene and Washington nightlife. He plays La Plata Beach Saturday at university-sponsored #TerpUp for Game Day, which also features giveaways and a pregame place for under-21 students.
