Bartender’s Ball: The Roaring 20s Are Back

SARATOGA SPRINGS— If perhaps you need a little perking up as the mid-winter blues descend upon your consciousness. This could be your prescription: tantalizing hors d’oeuvres, a full dinner buffet, martini bar, craft beer bar, a chocolate fountain and all-night dancing to live music by the Audiostars. That’s what you can expect at the 17th annual Bartenders’ Ball on Saturday, February 8 from 6:30 p.m. to midnight at the Saratoga Springs City Center. The excitement of the Roaring 20s continues with gaming in the casino room and entertainment by Holly and Evan. As this year’s theme is the Roaring 20s Gatsby Era, you are hereby encouraged to dress for fun, flapping and Charleston dancing. Come and find out who is Saratoga County’s best bartender as the winners of the Most Valuable Bartender contest are announced. The evening’s proceeds support Domestic Violence and Rape Crisis Services of Saratoga County’s emergency domestic violence shelter. Last year alone the shelter provided 2,612 bed nights of safe housing to domestic violence victims and their children fleeing abuse. Tickets are 60 dollars per person. This ball is always a sellout, so advance reservations are highly recommended. Call 583-0280 for information and reservations.
