This Saturday, the 4th Annual Red White & Dead Zombie Walk
For the 4th year Fremont will be overrun with Zombies, for the 2012 Red, White & Dead Zombie Walk to take place this Saturday, July 7th, from Noon – 8p. While the actual ‘walk’ (rather more of a mass lurch) will take place starting at 7p, starting at Noon will be ten mobile food trucks, live music, a Thriller Dance performance, a beer garden, and – most importantly – an official counting of the Zombies for another Guinness World Record attempt!
This Saturday, Celebrate B.F. Day Many Ways
