VIENNA -- The Arc of the Mid Ohio Valley will hold a benefit dance and silent auction with live music on Saturday at the Grand Pointe Conference Center in Vienna.
Silver sponsor individual tickets are $40 a person, $75 a couple and $300 for a table of eight. Doors open and the silent auction begins at 5:30 p.m.
Appetizers are at 6 p.m. and music will be from 7-11 p.m.
Tickets are available by going to the event posted on The Arc of the Mid Ohio Valley's Facebook page or at www.thearcmov.org to Latest Events
Music will be by the River City All Stars playing songs from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s.
The group was assembled by David Walmsley, who has played drums for several bands around the area for decades. He brought together performers in other bands.
The Arc of the MOV receives funding from grants and donations, with some minimal revenue generated from programs that is not enough to cover all of the expenses.
The benefit dance will allow The Arc to cover emergencies such as heating and water, covering final costs from the Secret Christmas program and grants that didn't cover all expenses for this project due to the increase in costs of goods.
