Celebrity waiters, organizers and guests of the Rotary Club of Cedar Creek Lake plan to dress as their favorite television character from the 1950s at the annual fundraiser at Athens Country Club Aug. 15 at 6 p.m.
The 18th Annual Celebrity Waiter fundraiser adopted the "Golden Days of Television" as its theme this year. Television reached its zenith in the 1950s as families crowded around the TV every night to watch their favorite shows.
Expect to see characters from "I Love Lucy," the "Dick Van Dyke Show, "Batman," "Superman," the "Roy Rogers Show," "Mayberry RFD" and other favorites from the 1950s roaming the country club.
There will be live entertainment, a silent auction and a live auction after the dinner served by local celebrity waiters.
The fundraiser helps host Rotary Club projects such as scholarships and donations to nonprofit groups around the Cedar Creek Lake area.
Tickets are $75 per person. Contact Erin Osborn at 903-887-7486 for information.
