(Seguin) — A special Valentine’s Day Dinner & Dance is coming early to Seguin this weekend.
Tickets are now on sale for the Geronimo Valentine’s Dance benefiting Seguin Youth Services, and Friends Helping Friends of Guadalupe County.
The fundraiser, featuring live music by Clint Taft & and the Buck Wild Band , is set for 7 p.m. Saturday at the Geronimo Community Center.
Sheryl Sachtleben, of Seguin Youth Services, says the non-profit group bypassed its annual New Year’s Eve dance for a chance at offering something a little different for area couples.
“We decided to include a dinner and dance to kind of give everybody an opportunity to have a date night and to get out and have dinner. Of course, you know Clint. He is really good. He tends to get everybody on the dance floor even people like me that don’t dance. He’s always been a lot of fun when he’s been there. I’m expecting probably 150 to 200 people maybe. I’ve got my girl Frances on the cooking — doing some baked chicken with her famous corn bread dressing. We’ve got tables sponsored by several businesses in town and so I’m thinking a lot of businesses are planning on coming out with their folks,” said Sachtleben.
Sachtleben says each ticket includes the cost of a catered meal. That meal includes baked chicken, stuffing and green beans.
“The tickets are pre-sale right now at $20 and that’s the dinner and the dance. It turns out Cash App is probably the easiest and then I’m just holding their name at the door. Their tickets will be waiting for them at the door or dropped off ahead of time,” said Sachtleben.
Again, cost is $20 in advance or $25 at the door. Tickets can be purchased by calling or texting 830-214-4722.
The Geronimo Community Center is located at 280 Navarro Dr.
