26TH ANNUAL INDEPENDENT COAL MINERS PICNIC, HEGINS, PA. AUGUST 14, 2010

While performing as the “Breaker Boys” Tommy Symons and I have had some great times. We have made many friends, and have had the pleasure of meeting many people. But nobody, compares to the wonderful friendship that the anthracite coal miners and their families have given us.. As we have always said, the greatest honor we ever had was to be asked to perform at "The Independent Coal Miners Picnic" in our home area.

The “Breaker Boys” want to thank David A. Lucas and his family for giving us the opportunity to perform songs about the coal miners, and to sing and write their stories back into history..
