Come shake off the wintertime blues and feel the sand in your toes at the “Wintertime Beach Blast.” The beach-themed party will warm spirits with a mid-winter “getaway” featuring yummy food catered by Wild Aces, beverages served with flair, fantastic entertainment with DJ Craz-e Crane, and a fabulous silent auction provided by our wonderful supportive business community. Think warm thoughts and don your Hawaiian shirt/Beach attire as we go under the Boardwalk for a tropical paradise. Adults only please.
