Frequently asked questions

Is this a "church" thing?

Not at all. First Church of God is graciously donating use of their large gym for this event

Do we have to go INTO the church to go to the gym?

No, you do not. Please park in parking lot the BACK of the church for most easily accessible parking

Can I get a receipt for my taxes?

You may if you register on line at http://act.alz.org/goto/TeamVibrantTLD

Can I donate additional funds to help fight Alzheimers?

ABSOLUTELY! Please do so via the http://act.alz.org/goto/TeamVibrantTLD link.

What else can I do to help in the fight against the disease?

Talk to us about it. One way is to join the Walk to End Alzheimer's, Sept 28 at Lake Story - you're invited to join our team: http://act.alz.org/goto/TeamVibrant2

What kind of music will there be?

We are trying to keep the hour blocks to their assigned decades. Even if that music is not your preference, remember it's a fun night for a good cause.

Did you say "Contests?"

YES! EACH decade will have a costume winner (feel free to bring a change of outfits if you choose). Judges are still to be decided.

What type of refreshments are included?

FREE refreshments! The specifics are still to be determined, and due to the nature of the event (dancing) we have opted NOT to include alcohol.

How do we get tickets?

You may purchase tickets in advance online via Eventbrite, at the church office weekdays 9-noon, Sundays after church (11:15), or at the door the evening of the event.

How can we pay?

Electronic payment via The Longest Day is preferred, but can accept cash and credit cards. Checks made payable to the Alzheimer's Association will be accepted.
