For the sixth year in a row, the Sandy Springs Recreation and Parks Department is inviting families to celebrate the special bond between moms, or mother figures, and their sons at its beloved annual Mother-Son Dance. 

The dance is on Friday, May 1, from 6 – 8 p.m. in the Studio Theater at the Sandy Springs Performing Arts Center. The evening will feature dancing, games, dinner, refreshments, and door prizes. Each boy in grades K-5 will also receive a souvenir photo and a goody bag.

Attire is business casual to semi-formal. Admission is $40 per mother–son duo, with an additional $10 for each extra son. Pre-registration is required. 

To make the evening even more memorable, guests can reserve a private table for a group for $200. Each reserved table includes admission for up to eight guests and guarantees the group a dedicated table for the entire evening.

One person should purchase the reserved table on behalf of the group. After purchase, they will be asked to provide the names of all attendees. 

A limited number of reserved tables are available, so early registration is encouraged. Individual tickets are not required for guests included in a reserved table purchase. 

To register, visit the Sandy Springs Recreation and Parks sign-up page

Scholarships are available upon approval. For more information, email recreation@sandyspringsga.gov
