Girls line up for a little line dancing during the 2014 Daddy-Daughter Dance. This years' dance, with a “luau party” theme, will be Saturday, Feb. 7, at the John Day Elks Lodge.

JOHN DAY – Hawaiian shirts and grass skirts – and don’t forget your hula moves, too!

“Luau Party” is the theme for this year’s Daddy-Daughter Dance, set for 6:30-8:30 p.m., Saturday, Feb. 7, at the John Day Elks Lodge.

This is the fifth year for the popular event, and the first time it will be held at the Lodge.

Activities include disc jockey music, dancing, limbo and hula dance contests, after-dinner snacks with tropical treats such as pineapple and ham, prizes and a keepsake 5×7 photo. Additional photos will be available to purchase from Tanni Wenger Photography.

The dance is open to girls in grades K-8 and their fathers or father figures. The cost per family is $20 for those in the John Day/Canyon City Parks and Rec. District, and $25 for all others.

The event is provided by a grant from Grant County Community Counseling Solutions, and benefits Park and Rec. scholarship programs.
