entertainment
This year's SKIP Benefit Dinner will feature acclaimed family-friendly magician Matt Roberts. Matt has performed across the globe and has been a featured guest on FOX, PBS, NBC's Today Show, and alongside Jim Henson's Muppets. You can learn more about Matt by visiting his web site at MattRobertsMagic.com.
Also joining us this year is singer/songwriter Liz Lohnes. We stumbled upon Liz last summer at the Marshfield Fair while recording video messages for the troops. Since we have no shame, we also asked if she'd perform at the dinner this year. She said yes. Since then she has become one of the 12 artists featured on the 2009 MySpace Music Calendar, where she listed Special Kindness In Packages as her charitable nonprofit inspiration. You can hear some of her original music and request her friendship at www.myspace.com/lizlohnes.
If that isn't enough excitement for one evening we have DJ Jeff Fowler, one of Massachusetts premier Disc Jockeys, providing sound for the evening and bringing plenty of music so you can shake your groove thang. And that, my friend, is entertainment for everyone to see.
