Performer: Mike Hughesman
Charity: Breakfast Club for Children
The Men of Sea to Sky Ladies' Night June 5 will mark Mike Hughesman's first official performance, but he's not nervous - in fact he is quite excited about having 200 women to entertain because "It's every man's dream". Mike is married with two children, he is a mechanic and a volunteer 麻豆社国产Firefighter as well as a great supporter of local charities.
"I am thrilled to assist in raising money for the Breakfast Club, because they are providing a phenomenal service to the community," says Mike. "I am a father myself, so I hate the thought of children being hungry." The Breakfast Club provides breakfast for local children who come to school hungry.
Mike will be dancing for the women at the June 5th event. "My mother was a dance instructor, and I was often forced to participate as a partner in her classes. I found out early that women love a man who can dance. It's how I won my wife's heart."
Ticket holders can expect Mike's act to be flavored with humor, and personality as he shows off his flair for romance and drama. You can fall in love women - but remember you can't take him home.
