We did it! We broke a Guinness World Record! Watch the video here!
6/9/12 - 8:17 pm
On Saturday, June 9th, 2,569 people danced their way into the Guinness Book of World Records on The Walkway Over The Hudson, between Poughkeepsie & Highland, NY.
In a line spanning more than one mile, the participants danced along to local musician/storyteller Story Laurie's version of The Hokey Pokey (produced by Dean Jones of the children's music band Dog on Fleas) to help set the record for "longest line of people doing a dance."
Video by Jessica Vecchione of Vecc Videography.
Oh, and in case you were wondering...
Yes, the Hokey Pokey IS what it's all about.
