Island Spirit
On the third Saturday evening of each month, a three-hour concert is held in the Main Hall, featuring different bands or DJs to entertain the audience. The doors open at 6:30 p.m., and the dance ends at 10 p.m. Your $15 entrance fee includes a light lunch of varied home-made sandwiches, veggies and dessert squares. This event is open to members and guests only, age 19+. The bar features a wide variety of alcohol and non-alcoholic beverages. Not a dancer? No problem! Many simply come to socialize and enjoy the music.

The Rivals
In the Main Hall, Valley Seniors’ house band Island Spirit performs a half-length concert every Wednesday starting at 11 a.m. (sometimes a bit earlier). This popular weekly event lets members practice their best dance moves and grooves to live music. A ten-minute break halfway through allows the shoes to cool off while dancers enjoy their lunch, consisting of home-made offerings from the kitchen. The choices often include a Lunch Special. Attendance is FREE to all members.
