Candlelight Dinner to Feature Professional Dancers, the Music of Roadside Attraction
BELLEVUE, WA. (Sept. 10, 2007) – Join us for another gala evening at the 2007 Candlelight Dinner Dance – "Come Dance With The Stars," sponsored by the Act One Guild whose membership of more than 40 community volunteers promotes the mission of Performing Arts Center Eastside (PACE) through their philanthropic endeavors. Set for November 3, 2007 at 6 p.m. at the Hyatt Regency Bellevue, this year's event will feature emcee Richard Foley, a former KOMO-TV personality.
The Guild's Candlelight Dinners have been attended by over 1,200 Eastside civic, corporate, and philanthropic leaders. The very popular and always sold-out event raises both funds and awareness about PACE. Last year, their most successful event yet, the Guild raised $567,000 from the Bucks For PACE auction. This year's Dinner Dance will raise funds to benefit PACE through the sale of table sponsorships and tickets, as well as a Fund-A-Need for PACE.
Following cocktails and dinner, the crowd will also enjoy dancing to the music of Keith Baggerly and the big band sound of Roadside Attraction. As a special treat this year, featured dancers from the Arthur Murray Studio will help us all get into step with exceptional displays of dancing throughout the evening.
Few seats remain of the original 35 tables. Reserve now so you don't miss out on this spectacular event. More information is available at 425.462.0095, at www.actoneguild.org or email at
