USS Midway PartyUSS Midway Annual Docents Event was held at the Admiral Kidd Club tonight. With over 300 guests it a larger event. There were about 10-12 veterans that served in World War II with us this evening along with hundreds of other veterans that donate their time to help educate the public who visit the ship. This is the fifth year I have worked this event and every year it gets more and more enjoyable. The average age of this group is around 75 so it is a group that knows their music! It is always a refreshing change of pace from the wild weddings I do each week. I have to dig deep into the big-band and oldies to keep them moving for four hours. Guests come up to me every year and ask “How did you learn about all these songs”? It is always nice when they are surprised that I am familiar with “their music” as they call it.

The USS Midway will have it’s  5,000,000th  visitor tomorrow on 5/12/10. That is a pretty great accomplishment for only being open 6 years.

I am just going to highlight a few company holiday parties this December. Tonight I was over at Barona Casino for a 200 person company party. The location is a bit of a drive for most people but I think it is a great spot for a corporate event because they have the hotel right there, the casino is available, and the event space is pretty much brand new. This offers guests lots of options to keep them interested. I am used to the “standard” prizes for most of the company raffle drawings such as the LCD TV’s, iPods, etc. This company party had one of the coolest raffle prizes I’ve seen in a while (and it wasn’t the 50″ LCD TV). They were giving away a sleek Tag Heuer watch! They also hired a female comedian for a 30 minute act and she did a really great job keeping everyone laughing. We then kicked into dancing. Tonight’s group had a good time even though I lost a fair number of guests that wanted to go out into the the casino (which is typical with any casino). Overall a fun way to close out the 2009 season!
