Michael Jackson fans and zombie wannabes came together at the YS Senior Center on Thursday night, Oct. 22, to rehearse for the 3rd Annual Thrill The World dance event which will take place on Saturday, Oct. 24, at the John Bryan Center gym. The event is a global celebration of the life and music of Michael Jackson and an attempt to break the world record of a worldwide simultaneous dance to Jackson's "Thriller". A second rehearsal will take place Saturday at the gym from 6-8 p.m., followed by the official group dance performance at 8:30 p.m. The event is free and open to the public. Participants are encouraged to dress like zombies or Michael Jackson and bring plenty of water to avoid dehydration. For more information, go to www.ThrillTheWorld.com or contact event organizer and local DJ Judith "JuJu" Wolert-Maldonado at (937) 532-4996 or ttw09yso@gmail.com.
