Your Oasis of Fun Outside of Work
We loved hosting Business After Hours through the Kirkwood Des Peres Chamber of Commerce last week! The evening began after work on Thursday, August 27th. As guests from three different St. Louis Chambers of Commerce, BNI Business BOOM and the greater St. Louis area arrived, they were invited to enter three different drawings to be eligible to win amazing ballroom dance prizes.
As attendees began mingling and touring Prestige Ballroom Dancing, they found their way over to our wonderful food and beverage caterers. Jon from Liquid Spirits supplied amazing beverages that were an absolute hit with all of our attendees. Our guests also enjoyed new menu items like chips, dip and lemonade courtesy of Susanne at Oberweis. Finally, for dessert, Destination Desserts generously donated gooey butter cake, cookies and cupcakes. YUM!
After fellow business personnel had enjoyed their hors d’oueuvres and refreshments, the first prize drawing was held. Our lucky winner, (a guest from the West County Chamber of Commerce) received two CDs full of popular Ballroom Dance music. During the second drawing, (we added a surprise twist and…) four attendees each won an Introductory Ballroom Dance lesson. It was wonderful for us to see the excited looks on the winner’s faces as they learned more about the art of ballroom dancing! Last but certainly not least, our final drawing of the evening was for a Ballroom Dance Package complete with private lessons, group lessons and more! Our winner for the evening was a current State Farm Account Representative in Des Peres. In between each of the three prize drawings, our talented staff members demonstrated numerous dances ranging from a Beginner Level Rumba all the way through an elegant Bolero and stunning Cha Cha.
Thank you again to everyone who attended and made this event such a blast. If you or someone you know is interested in Ballroom Dancing, we have gift cards available in the amount of your choosing which can be purchased via our website or by calling 314-596-2188.
