WILD THINGS BALL
Brace yourself; things are about to get WILD.
In celebration of All Hallow’s Eve and the closing of a decade, we are hosting the biggest and wildest party we can muster. The evening’s events will include:
COSTUMES:
Come in your own full costume to qualify for prizes, or just put on your dusty old formal attire – the choice is yours. But mythical or not, you must look fancy. At 9:00 PM we have a fashion show facilitated by the one and only Courtney Matthews planned through the galleries. Over a dozen local fashion designers are going all out to create the wildest thing they can imagine based on our fair city ambassadors: the Azalea Trail Maids. Costume contest winners will be announced at 11 :00 PM
DANCING:
DJ Hot Lobster will be driving some serious tunes for 3 short-fire dance competitions that come with elaborate prizes. Get ready to boogie! Additional MUSIC: At 8:00 PM the Underhill Family Orchestra will regale us with their driving upbeat crooning.
LIBATIONS:
Sponsored in part by Greer’s and Serda Brewing, three full bars will be dispersed throughout the party, and will serve the signature cocktail of the evening: The Wild Whiskey Fizz.
RAFFLES:
Thematic prize packages will be on raffle whether you’re a Lady of the Lagoon, Sea Witch, Swamp Punk, or River Rat. Get them cheaper if you buy them ahead; raffle tickets at the event will be CASH ONLY.
