Annual Halloween Dance Bash!
Saturday, October 25th in the Event Center - 5pm
The doors will open at 5pm for the “Get Happy Hour” to allow time for munching, mingling, and checking out the always creative Halloween costumes. There will be background music playing during this time. The tables around the dance floor will reflect a spooky Halloween atmosphere and there will be a ghostly photo backdrop, ready for you to snap pics of all your friends.
Members and guests are welcome to attend this adults-only event. Costumes are optional but there will be a costume contest with prizes for best male, best female, best couple, best ensemble (3 or more), and best overall. The grand prize will be a ticket to the Winter Solstice in December.
The Boomers are excited to announce that the dance music will be provided by a fantastic band, new to Rossmoor - Run4Cover. They have opened for classic rock bands such as Chicago, Huey Lewis & the News, The Temptations, and the Doobie Brothers! Run4 Cover plays it all from classic rock, R&B, Motown, to today’s dance hits. This 11-piece party band, with a 3-person horn section, will pack the dance floor from 6-9:30. No partner is needed – just join the mosh pit and rock out!
You can bring your own food/snacks or there is an option to pre-order a box supper with ticket purchase. The option includes, from Morucci’s, a choice of either a turkey or caprese (vegetarian) sandwich, along with grapes, chips, and a Halloween treat. At the band break, a dessert sampler plate will be served at tables. if you prefer to bring your own food, paper goods and utensils will be available although bringing reusable glass, plate, and/or utensils will help to cut down on plastic waste.
There will be a fundraising cash bar with the net proceeds going to support the Rossmoor Fund. Wines, much better than the usual house wines, with a generous pour, will be $10 glass, and beer, $5. Bring cash for bar purchases. There will also be free soft drinks and sparkling water provided. No outside alcohol is permitted.
There will be a drawing that also benefits the Rossmoor Fund. Prizes include fine wines, massage, facial, and restaurant gift cards. Norine Neyhouse, realtor with Coldwell Banker Realty, and the club’s anchor sponsor, is once again generously sponsoring a $100 restaurant gift card. Drawing ticket cards range from $5-$20.
