Bat Mitzvah Party At North Portland Venue

 
It was good to see the family again. I performed at Josh’s Bar Mitzvah in March 2009 at the Laurelhurst Club in Northeast Portland. On this night though (Saturday, March 3, 2012), we celebrated Charlotte’s Bat Mitzvah at the North Star Ballroom in Portland, Oregon.
 
As guests arrived around 6pm, I played a variety of background music. The downstairs area was set-up for the adults as a place where they could go to escape the youth energy set to happen at any moment, but nearly everyone stayed in the main room… maybe to stick around for the entertainment.
 
With dinner scheduled for 7pm, there was only a little time once most of the kids arrived for a game, so with the girls versus the boys, I hosted a ‘name that tune’ contest. Of course, they knew the latest hit music, but with the girls comfortably ahead and agreeing to double or nothing after getting the victory, I went with some oldies and that stumped the group, but the girls still got it and held their title 🙂
 
After dinner, the kids got right back to it with some games, fun participation dance songs and a limbo. Eventually the adults joined in and really took over the dance floor for about an hour as I rolled a heavy dose of disco and 80’s. The kids returned for the final hour, dancing to their favorite current hit songs.
