Headline: World Record Attempt Dance to "Thriller" October 29, 2011!
Colorado Springs,
Colorado--Today’s Date: October 10, 2011Event Date: October 29, 2011
Worldwide preparations are heading to the finish line to break a world record! Thrill the World is an annual worldwide simultaneous dance to Michael
Jackson’s “Thriller” video for world records and charity. They have succeeded four times in breaking their own record! Hundreds of cities on 5 continents
have registered for the event.
In Colorado Springs, the dance will take place at Southside Johnny's, 528 South Tejon Street. All ages and physical abilities are welcome. Here in Colorado
the time is 8:00 p.m. Mountain Time, Saturday, October 29, 2011. On the day of the event participants are advised to arrive at least one hour early to be included
in the World Record. A newbie and review dancers workshop will be held 3-7 pm.
Besides breaking a world record, the event is a fundraiser for the Coronado High School Cheerleading Association to support a local school.
Also scheduled is a costume contest where the 1st, 2nd, and third place winners will receive a specially engraved Thrill The World 2011 award.
“Experiencing the event itself is "thrilling" for both dancers and on-lookers. It is, after all, an attempt to top a world record, dancing with a crowd of
people, knowing that thousands of other people all over the world are dancing at the same time. With each refrain, and when Vincent Price starts his rap, the energy in the crowd is palpable. Of course, the audience hooting it up also helps the excitement and the fun.”
"Best of all, it's a family friendly event that brings together all sorts of people. Differences fade away and we all just celebrate the love of music, dance and having fun!"
