A few seats to the event still remain and can be purchased for $100 each.

The theme for this year’s event is Journey Through Television. Table sponsors will decorate their tables and encourage guests to come in costume. Among the television themes already selected are “Happy Days,” “Walking Dead,” “Duck Dynasty,” “Touched by an Angel,” “Sex & the City,” “NCIS,” “MPTV Academy Award Night,” and “Grey’s Anatomy.”

In addition to being the community’s foremost costume party, the Celebrity Waiter dinner features a live band for dancing, onstage entertainment and a live auction.

Auction items include a one-week stay at the Mayan Palace Resort near Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, for four people; an entertainment package of dining and theater tickets; a barbecue for up to 30 guests at the Sand Canyon home of Santa Clarita City Councilman Mayor Bob and Kathy Kellar; private flight and lunch for two from Agua Dulce to the Santa Barbara area; a week in a two-bedroom condo in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico; a Princess cruise to Mexico or the Caribbean; and a week in a fully equipped Maui beach house that sleeps 10 guests. 

Guests can help their waiter earn the Favorite Waiter award by purchasing scrip to “tip” the waiter for special perks and antics throughout the evening.

The Celebrity Waiter dinner will be held at the Hyatt Regency Valencia and is one of the SCV Senior Center’s top fundraising events. Proceeds help to support Senior Center services including Home Delivered Meals, reassurance telephone calls, educational and support groups, the Handyworker Program, Supportive Services and many other programs.
