Special guest Guinea West African Drum and Dance Ensemble will open the program. The event will be emceed by Michael “Zombo” Devine.
The event will also feature refreshments courtesy of the Estelle S. Campbell Boys and Girls Club (neighbors to Leslie Park Pool), and light fare by Lawrenceville’s eclectic cafés and restaurants.
