Hidden Meadows Spring Spectacular Goes Patriotic for Annual Fashion Show

By Dawn Berry

It’s spring, which means it’s time for the Hidden Meadows Community Foundation Spring Spectacular and 21st annual Fashion Show! The event is scheduled for Saturday, May 19 and will feature everything from dinner and entertainment to raffle drawings, and a tribute to our Armed Forces.

“This year we’re excited to announce that our models will be unveiling fashions for our Armed Forces Day theme, ‘Honoring America’,” said Dawn Nicks, Hidden Meadows Community Foundation Board Member. “We’ll also be holding a demonstration on accessorizing and will have plenty of entertainment for everyone’s pleasure.”

Nicks stated that Macy’s North County Fair is providing all the clothing and apparel for the fashion show, and that all proceeds from the Spring Spectacular will go towards educational scholarships for the Hidden Meadows Community youth.

The Hidden Meadows Community Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, whose mission includes providing funds for community beautification projects, assisting families in need and awarding college scholarships to the children or grandchildren of Hidden Meadows residents.

This year’s Spring Spectacular is set to take place from noon to 3 p.m. at the Castle Creek Country Club, 8797 Circle R Drive in Escondido.

“This is the second year we’ve held the event at the Castle Creek Country Club,” said Nicks. “Castle Creek has proven to be a great venue for us. The location is ideal because it’s right off Interstate 15, and they have a newly remodeled banquet room and restaurant. It’s just the perfect place.”

Lunch will feature an All American Barbeque theme consisting of grilled tri-tip, barbecue chicken, potato salad, coleslaw, baked beans, a choice of beverage and a selection of desserts. A vegetarian choice will also be offered, and a no-host bar will be available throughout the afternoon.

Nicks says not to forget to bring extra cash for the raffle prizes. The raffle baskets get better and better each year, and this year is no exception. There will be two ways to win: you can take a chance on holding the winning ticket pulled for the basket of your choice, or be the highest bidder at the silent auction.

“There will truly be a little something for everyone, which is why we’re asking everyone to come out to the Spring Spectacular,” Nicks said. “Come help us celebrate those who serve this great country of ours, and salute the men and women who have made us proud to be called Americans.”

Ticket prices for the Spring Spectacular are $45 each or $85 a pair, with each table seating eight people. For information on how to reserve your tickets or table, call Jane Glassett at 760-749-1520, or you can purchase tickets online at www.hiddenmeadows.us/fashionshow.htm.
