"-YET THE PICNIC HASN'T HAD ONE BAD PUBLIC INCIDENT  in all its 9 years..) have now become too much... so  i will now need HELP,  with 3 things...#1-give everybody a one POSITIVE DAY OF "FAMILY FUN", as i reunite ALL THE ORIGINAL  Robot,Poplock,Poppin,Boogaloo,Boppin,Mannequin,Mime,Strutt, and Locking Dance Pioneers with all the NEWSCHOOL dance artists and their FAMILIES, close friends and FANS of the POPPING DANCE, to meet n greet,share and compare ,share hearts and smiles,with bbq,picnic lunches,picture taking, sharing of boomboxes,beats, and moves.,..#2- show LOVE ,SUPPORT,and APPRECIATION for the  CULTURE and EACH OTHER and HELP KEEP IT ALIVE... ..and #3- TO SHOW AND GIVE OUR " YOUTH"  A CHANCE TO SEE "POSITIVE ALTERNATIVES" , TO have "mentors" THERE TO HELP THEM  with IDEAS, GOALS, and GUIDANCE ....... .ALL in a "NO DRUG ,DRINK,DRAMA,EGO,POLITICS ALLOWED ENVIRONMENT". ...I have NO SPONSORS,.only myself ,and HELP FROM YOU.
