Valentine Ball - 2019 Fundraiser for Canton's Bicentennial in 2021

If it is February then it means the Bicentennial Committee is celebrating one year closer to 2021 by hosting a rocking fundraiser party.

This year is a Valentine Theme and will feature all the things you have come to love about our parties. Your $20.00 ticket will get you into the best party in town with great food, music by our DJ from "8th" Street Entertainment, door prizes and a 50/50 Raffle.

For fun this year we will play our version of the Newlywed Game! No you don't have to be a newlywed to participate, heck you don't even have to be married. You just need to be willing to answer a few questions about your significant other.

And of course there will be a signature drink at the cash bar. This year it is …. wait for it... the Love Potion Cocktail. Ah yes, how appropriate for the theme!

Tickets are on sale NOW at the Town Office. Get yours now before we sell out!
