Fighting Hunger By Dancing To TWISTED SISTER's 'We're Not Gonna Take It'

August 4, 2011

According to The Marietta Daily Journal, nearly 500 people are expected to dance to TWISTED SISTER's "We're Not Gonna Take It" in Glover Park on the Marietta Square in Marietta, Georgia this Saturday night (August 6) to help raise money to fight hunger. The dancers will be dropping food in barrels placed throughout the town square, which will then be given to MUST Ministries in Marietta, Smyrna and Canton.

"The idea popped into my head a few months ago," longtime Marietta resident Nikki Clotfelter told The Marietta Daily Journal. "Some friends were at our house and just jokingly I said, 'Hey, let's do a flash mob!"

Clotfelter chose to choreograph and perform the flash mob to "We're Not Gonna Take It", because she said, "We're not gonna take hunger anymore."

Nearly 100 people attended a rehearsal Saturday, July 30 at First Presbyterian Church in Marietta. Footage of that session can be seen below.

MUST Ministries serves approximately 32,000 clients a year at their three locations. They serve a ton of food each day, 45 percent of which to children.
