Family Trivia, Dinner and Silent Auction

In June 2012, a group of Hartland Community Education’s Dynamic Expressions Dancers will be headed to the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida, where they will be joined by dancers from across the continent to dance in a parade down Main Street USA in the Magic Kingdom.

The dancers will also be performing original choreography from our recital in Hollywood Studios.

All this costs money, so, from 6:30-10 p.m. Friday, Jan. 13, Dynamic Expressions hosts a Family Trivia Night and Silent Auction, with dinner, to raise funds to help pay for the trip at Ore Creek Middle School.

One hundred percent of the event proceeds will go directly to help our dancers live out their dream! 

You can choose what activities work best for your family. A free supervised movie room and open gym will be available for child care.  Donations will be accepted.

Dinner, a wonderful buffet featuring pizza, salad, and breadsticks provided by Marco's Pizza and other great dishes from area families, will be served at 6:30 p.m., and costs just $5 per person.

The family-friendly trivia contest will begin at 7 p.m., and also costs $5 per person, with a generous cash prize to the highest scoring team (maximum eight members). Questions range from pop culture and history to sports and entertainment.

Or you may just drop by for the silent auction, which includes items donated from area businesses. The auction will be open throughout the night, but don’t wait too long because the bidding ends at 8:45 p.m. Registration for the silent auction is free.
