Presenting...A Swinging Evening With The Middle School and High School Jazz Bands

Live music and local fare team up for a great evening.

On the horizon, there is a night which will remind one of going back in time to listen to the original ‘Tonight Show’ band.  Formal suits, shining brass and elegant orchestra staging will hark back to a classy era where upbeat music accompanied dinner conversation and where one really didn’t want to sit still.  Sound appealing?  

Then come to the Clocktower to join the Viking and Panther Jazz Bands for their  on Friday, February 3, 2012, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.  Admission includes all-you-can-eat salad, red beans and rice, bread, tea, coffee, dessert and crab!  Wine, beer and beverages will be sold at the bar.  

The funds from this event will support the accomplished Jazz music programs at Benicia Middle School and Benicia High School. This is one of only a few large fundraisers, which generate needed funds for a program supported mainly by family and community donations.
