A FOOL’S DAY CABARET

Many people came out to enjoy an evening of song, dance, and jokes at A Fool’s Day Cabaret, a benefit for the Lincoln City Warming Shelter on Saturday, March 31st at the Lincoln City Cultural Center. Lincoln City Warming Shelter President, Patrick Alexander, Cabaret Director, Phyllis Thompson along with a variety of amazing talent filled the evening with light hearted antics in aid of a serious cause. Guests were invited to share the spotlight by telling a joke for a chance to win prizes.  The fun and humorous evening drew attention to homelessness and the vital role of the Warming Shelter in the community.  The Lincoln City Warming Shelter offers emergency weather shelter and year-round resources to the homeless.  The fundraiser was a fun and entertaining night with a serious message and mission.
