Lions Club: Orange Lions To Host Comedy Night On October

Get ready for a fun-filled evening with lots of laughs. The Orange Lions will be hosting a Comedy Night Fundraiser on Saturday, October 15, 2016. The event will be at the St. Barbara Church Hall, 480 Racebrook Rd. in Orange. This is a wonderful opportunity to support the Orange Lions Club as we continue in our efforts with blindness aid, prevention and eye research and community programs.

Our comedians are very engaging and you will not be disappointed. Darren Sechrist’s take on the absurdities of life make him a hit with audiences of all types. Darren has performed at Joker’s Wild, Foxwoods, The Comic Strip, The Bijou Theater and many other top clubs across New England. David Hintz has been voted as one of the top three funniest comedians in the New Haven Advocate’s reader’s choice for the past three years. Tony Liberati has entertained crowds all over the country since making his stand-up debut in 1998.

His style is energetic and connects well with all types of audiences. His experience as an elementary school teacher blends feelings of nostalgia and silliness together. Beecher has performed in Brooklyn and Boston Comedy festivals. He has recorded segments on the Wendy William Show, MTV2, the HBO show “Vinyl”, and The Jim Galligan Show.

Doors open at 6:00 p.m. with a buffet dinner, dessert and coffee beginning at 6:30 p.m. The show begins at 8:00 p.m. A cash bar of wine and beer only will be available. Don’t forget we will have raffle and door prizes throughout the evening! Get your friends together and reserve a table now.

Tickets are only $30 each and we are offering VIP seating at $35 each. Tickets can be purchased from any Orange Lions Club member or by calling our Chairperson, Ron Ruotolo, at (203) 795-9651. “Laughter Is Good for your Health!”

The Orange Lions continue to volunteer for our community. We will be helping the Orange Historical Society in emptying out the old Finer Home on Turkey Hill Road.

The Lions will be helping mark or remark guided trails in Orange. Finally as mentioned in my last article, we are still collecting baby diapers, so if you would like to donate to the Lions Diaper Drive contact any Lion or call (203) 795-3906.

The Orange Lions Club meets on the 2nd and 4th Mondays of each month 6:30 p.m., at Chip’s. Contact Marianne Miller (203) 795-3906 for more information regarding the Lions Club or any of our events and activities.
