More than 200 martial arts celebrities will be kicking and spinning Sunday at Dragonfest 1998, a benefit for a pediatric AIDS group.
The third annual event will be held from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Four Points Sheraton Hotel, 1500 S. Raymond Ave. More than 1,200 people are expected to attend martial arts master Gerald Okamura’s event, which raised $1,500 for the Los Angeles Pediatric AIDS Network last year.

Other martial arts guests include stars from “The Power Rangers,” “Mortal Kombat,” “Xena: Warrior Princess,” “American Gladiators,” “Lethal Weapon 4,” “The Crow” and “Spawn.” They will be available for autographs and photographs.
