Village of Fox Lake hosts country themed dance

On Saturday, February 18, the Village of Fox Lake’s Lakefront Park Building was filled with the sights and sounds of a fantastic countrythemed dance, the Boots and Bow Ties Sweetheart Dance. The event was a resounding success, bringing families together for a night of fun, laughter, and good music.

The dance, which was organized by the Fox Lake Parks and Recreation De-partment, had two sessions from 4:30 to 6:00 p.m. and 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. with mothers and sons and dads and daughters dressed in their finest boots, cowboy hats and bow ties. The evening was filled with country music, line dancing, and photo opportunities for all attendees.

“We were thrilled to see so many families and friends come out for the Boots and Bow Ties Dance,” said Amy Whitis, Director of

Parks and Recreation. “The energy and enthusiasm in the room were contagious, and it was clear that everyone was having a great time.”

Tickets for the dance were sold for $15 per couple for residents and $20 per couple for nonresidents, with each additional child being $5. Each couple also received a commemorative photo as a special gift.

The Boots and Bow Ties Dance was a great opportunity for families to make memories and have a night of fun, and it was clear that everyone in attendance enjoyed themselves immensely, The Village of Fox Lake is already looking forward to planning the next event, the Egg-Citing Easter Egg Hunt and Bunny Breakfast, and bringing more joy to the community.
