SaddleBrooke Ballroom Dance Club (SBDC) is hosting a Holiday Dance Party at HOA-1 on Tuesday, December 14. The evening will include a plated dinner (cost is $40 per member and $46 for non-member) with salad, a choice of entree (beef, chicken or fish), and a wonderful dessert. Vegetarian or other dietary needs will be accommodated.

Entrée choices:

  • Tomato and Red Wine Braised Short Ribs
  • Stuffed Sole with Crab and Lemon Beurre Blanc
  • Braised Chicken Coq a Vin

Side dishes:

  • Basil Whipped Potatoes (for beef and chicken)
  • Wild Rice Pilaf with dried cranberries and pecans (for fish)
  • Broccolini

Doors open 5 p.m., and dinner will be served at 5:30 p.m. After dinner, we will dance in the Vermillion Room from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. SBDC dances are always a glorious time. Our disc-jockeys play such a wonderful selection of tunes. Ballroom music is NOT the stuffy music of our parents! Selections from a recent play list included “Home” by Michael Buble, “Chain of Fools” by Aretha Franklin, Brooks & Dunn’s “Neon Moon”, and one of my favorites, “Boogie Shoes”, by K.C. and the Sunshine Band. Are your Boogie Shoes a little rusty? It’s OKAY! Our club has all level of dancers. Several of our new members just watched at their first dinner dance, and still had a great time! And you know the food will be good.
