2004 Daddy/Daughter Date Night Evaluation
The Daddy/Daughter Date Nights were held on February 12 & 13 at the
Recreation Center. Both nights were a great success with 45 couples attending
each night. The event continues to grow and be successful with many participants
returning multiple years.
Caterer
Home Plate served dinner at this year's event. The menu included: ham, chicken,
mashed potatoes & gravy, corn, coleslaw, dinner rolls, milk & coffee. I would
definitely invite Home Plate back again next year, as the food and service were
both excellent.
Dance
All Time Favorites served as the DJ once again for this year's dance. The DJ did
a nice job of getting the group involved. Just about every couple danced the
entire evening. I would invite them back again next year.
Face Painting
Maund Entertainment provided the face painter for this year's event. The line
was long at times, but each child had an opportunity to get their face painted.
Entertainment
During the dinner hour we had a balloon sculptor strolling through the crowd
making elaborate balloon designs for all the children in attendance. The balloon
sculptor was a nice addition, and the kids really seemed to enjoy their balloon. 1
would invite them back again next year.
General Comments/Suggestions
· :, Continue running the event for two nights.
· ~' Using the lobby area for registration and photo taking seemed to help with
traffic flow.
o:o As many couples are returning for multiple years, continue looking for
fresh new ideas.
