PARTY PLANNER: FEBRUARY 2015

SATURDAY FEBRUARY 7
This month’s theme is Dogmania. There will actually be puppies there to cuddle all night long and if one steals your heart you can also adopt it.
Each month is a different theme and dressing up is encouraged. If you don’t have an outfit, it’s not a problem. The crowd is fashionable twenty to thirty-something up for a night of pop, disco and oldies.
