Freedom Park Tonight! (and more)
To kick off tonight’s Festival In The Park, you’re gonna see what’s undoubtedly gonna a fantastic show of youth talent! And, honestly, you oughtta be there if you’re not hung up at work. Here’s why:
Y’see, the Crown Town’s future lies in the hands and hearts of our children. Now, we’ve read reports of abuse, misuse and neglect concerning the kids — but, remember: They’re gonna lead this town — possibly this nation — someday!! And every ounce of support we can give them now — every bit of encouragement and respect we can muster — is gonna pay off with big dividends in the future for us!
So they’re gonna show their talent in many fields: according to the Observer promo, it’ll include music, dance, juggling, comedy, drama, martial artists, puppetry, gymnastics, storytelling and more.
Hey … can you imagine us knocking of Winston-Salem as the arts capital of the state?? If these kids are half as good as I’ve been told (by parents, their kinfolk and friends), our future’s gonna be in some beautiful hands over the next decades!
But I mentioned what they’re gonna eventually become. That being said, here’s a vid (from the old American Bandstand) of The Knickerbockers doin’ a very special tune from the Sixties. Listen to the lyrics … and think of the children at the same time. The words were true then, and it’s true today — just with a different … Coming Generation:
Now … make a point to get to the Park and enjoy the Festival. The children are gonna put on a great talent show … and you’ll be amazed at the artistic future we’re looking at here in the Queen City!
