A Holiday Party, A Middle School Dance and Karaoke!

Last Friday, we had the privilege of once again entertaining the staff at Guiding Eyes For The Blind in Yorktown Heights NY. It was great to be back after their Holiday Party hiatus! The first party we did for them was in 1998, so we go way back. They are such a terrific bunch of people! This year, in addition to their traditional lip sync skits, DJ Tom also provided karaoke. Some really great singers there! DJ Jon also entertained the kids at one of our middle schools and DJ Brad provided karaoke at Rohman's Inn in Shohola PA.

Saturday was a night off for all our DJs-- and a welcome one at that. My husband, Tom, finally got a chance to see the Saturday night movie on HBO! DJs don't very often have off on Saturdays, so it was a treat! We couldn't decide on whether to go out or stay and and opted to stay in. We watched Red Riding Hood and then Country Strong on TIVO. We really enjoyed both films.

Merry Christmas to all!

Four Weddings... and a Homecoming Dance!

Last weekend, we entertained at four weddings... Julia and Chris at the West Point Club, West Point NY; Laurie and Brad at the Warwick Center, Warwick NY; Bob and Christa at the Riverview Inn, Matamoras PA; and, Amanda and AJ at Catlin Gardens, Slate Hill NY. We also provided the entertainment for a Middle School Dance, a High School Homecoming Dance, along with our usual Friday and Sunday Karaoke.

Laurie and Brad had their ceremony in the upstairs Chapel of the Warwick Center, followed by the cocktail hour and reception in the Port Ewen Banquet Room. The Center is perched on a 465-acre estate, offering wonderful country views. DJ Terry provided the music for ceremony, cocktail hour and reception.

The West Point Club offers an amazing view of the Hudson River and surrounding mountains. Julia and Chris chose the hours of 4 to 8 p.m., so everyone was able to gaze at the view for the majority of the reception which was held in the Grand Ballroom. DJ Tom was the entertainer.

Bob and Christa were hoping to have their ceremony and cocktail hour outside at the Riverview Inn, along the scenic Delaware River, but was held inside, due to the weather not cooperating. Fortunately, the Riverview Inn is lined with windows, so everyone was still able to enjoy the scenery. DJ Joey provided music for ceremony, cocktail hour and reception.

We really have to compliment Catlin Gardens on the superb job they did restoring the gardens so quickly after the terrible damage done by the flooding of Catlin Creek as a result of Tropical Storm Lee. Amanda and AJ were able to have their outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour, as they had planned, followed by the reception in the Manor House. DJ Tom was the entertainer and provided music for ceremony, cocktail hour and reception.

The school dances went off without a hitch. The Middle School dance was a black light party and the kids really got a kick out of the lights provided by DJ Tom, and the props provided by the PTA. The principal told me he thought it was the best dance they had to date.

The Homecoming dance was a smashing success! DJs Brendan and Brad really rocked the crowd! They, too, were told it was the best Homecoming Dance ever had.

This coming weekend is a welcome break, as we are doing our regular Friday and Sunday Karaoke at Rohman's Inn in Shohola PA and late-night entertainment on Saturday at the Greenville Inn in Port Jervis NY. Come on out and have some fun with DJ Tom!
