Description
BEACON and Hilltop host fourth annual Valentine’s Dance for area boomers and seniors
Are you ready to kick up your dancing heels? The BEACON Senior Newspaper and Hilltop Senior Living Communities team up to put on the area’s best Valentine’s Dance on Saturday, February 11, from 7:30 p.m.-10:30 p.m. in the Garden Room at the Commons of Hilltop, 625 27 1/2 Road in Grand Junction.
Bring a date, bring a friend or just bring yourself. Dancers can glide across a real wooden dance floor, led by the big band melodies of Clark Gault’s Swing City Express, a 12-piece ensemble of local musicians. Hilltop’s finest chefs will be cooking up a delectable assortment of hors d’oeuvres and sweet indulgences, and the room will be enveloped in an art deco theme.
“The dance has become something people talk about and look forward to each year,” Hilltop Marketing and Communications Director Mike Green said. “People love the music, food and dancing. The dance floor is full from the band’s first number to its last. ”
For its fourth year, the dance will feature new cuisine, fresh musical arrangements and new faces on the dance floor, including Scott and Alice Betts, a competitive dancing duo who will give a special tango performance.
“Scott is also an amazing vocalist and accomplished musician. He’ll be playing along with Clark Gault’s Swing City Express throughout the night, ” BEACON Publisher Kevin VanGundy said. “We'll also have several dance hosts on hand to help the shy-at-heart get their groove on.”
The dance is open to anyone age 55 and older, but younger folks are welcome to attend as well.
“There is nothing else like it in the valley,” Green said.
Tickets are available in advance for only $20 per person—a sweet deal, especially since each ticket includes two drinks from the bar. Call the BEACON Senior Newspaper at 970-243-8829 to get your tickets today.
