| • Project Kindle Dance Marathon - Rumor has it 1000 kids showed up last year at Golden Valley High's new outdoor amphitheater for a concert by False Puppet; the best teen phenomenon since The Backstreet Boys. Kids were turned away due to overcrowding... however Project Kindle has inked a deal with the fluffy haired boy band to perform at our Dance Marathon to benefit Project Kindle. When the news broke that the boyish threesome would be performing at our DM our inbox was flooded forcing us to rethink our initial venue for the event. Spurred by reports of swelling public appearances by the band we decided to move the event to The Patios at Valencia Town Center in the space next to El Cubulleros. Performing with False Puppet is the band Slater and on the wheels of steel is our very own... DJ BEATZ spinning the latest songs.
