A staple of Extravaganza has been our Sign-Up Parties. These events are a great opportunity for our community to come together! This year we are premiering two new parties in addition to an event favorite:
- For the Men: Whiskey Business. A night to sample a range of different whiskeys and learn about several styles.
- For the Ladies: Wine Tasting Party. Featuring a delicious assortment of wine and appetizers.
- For the Kids: JG’s Reptile Show. Held during school, this exciting, educational, interactive, and hands-on experience features reptiles found all over the world!
Sign-up Parties will be available at our Extravaganza on Saturday, March 4. Space for these events are limited and will be offered to those in attendance first, so get your Extravaganza tickets today!
