Sponsored by "A Daughter's Heart," a non-profit ministry. This evening is "A Moment to Treasure" and a night your daughter will never forget. Daughters ages 8 to 60 have enjoyed this special night alone with their fathers. A daughter needs a dad to remind her of the comfort of being held near, and feeling safe and sound. This dinner dance is an excellent opportunity for that. Register now online at www.adaughtersheart.com, but hurry, seating is limited and the deadline to register is February 6.
