Shamrock Ball, 20th, is March 1
Fathers and daughters are setting their sights on attending 20th Annual Shamrock Ball, a father-daughter dance, set for Saturday, March 1, in Farragut Community Center, 239 Jamestowne Blvd.
“The Shamrock Ball is a very well-attended event that’s a tradition for many families in Farragut,” Town Recreation and Event manager Rachel Malone said. “Participants will enjoy music, light refreshments, a craft and commemorative photo.”
Hosted by Town of Farragut’s Parks & Recreation Department, there are two sessions for the event: from 3 to 5 p.m. and from 6 to 8 p.m.
“The time change was made to accommodate the community’s preference since in previous years the 6 to 8 time-slot has sold out and the 7 to 9 (slot) wasn’t as well-attended,” Malone said. “We’re seeing an equal distribution in ticket sales with the new times.”
Meanwhile, “Tickets are selling fast,” he pointed out.
Ticket sales and sponsorships will benefit the Greater West Knox Kiwanis Club and their chosen causes: Black Mountain Home for Children and Kiwanis Fresh Air Camp.
Tickets are $30 per couple and $5 for each extra attendee. To buy tickets, visit online at townoffarragut.org/register through Friday, Feb. 21.
“All family members are welcome to attend,” the release stated. “The photos (from the Town) are free and will be available for download within a week after the dance.”
