Eat, drink, and tap your toes while raising money for the important work of Family Pathways, our donors, and volunteers.

All proceeds benefit their Hunger Relief, Aging, Youth, and Refuge Network domestic violence services.
Early bird registration is $50 until May 1; after May 1, $60. The event begins at 5:30 p.m. at Bloom Lake Barn, 17147 Bloom Lake Road, Shafer.
The evening will include live music by members of the Mystery Mountain Boys, The Houdek String Band and Barb and Eben Gillespie. The Mystery Mountain Boys will entertain with a mix of bluegrass, gospel, country, and classic rock. The Houdek String Band is a husband and wife duo featuring Taylors Falls residents Holle Brian and Rich Smith (not to be confused with Family Pathways Executive Director, Rich Smith). For over 30 years, the Houdeks have offered a mix of traditional and contemporary folk, country, and old-time music in an acoustic format. Barb and Eben Gillespie will delight and inspire event goers with their unique combination of vocals and incredible acoustic guitar.
The evening also includes dinner by LeFebvre Catering, auctions, games and more.
