Child Focus sent me their Top 10 Reasons for Why You Should Attend the MOMS ROCK Tea this Saturday. Can you find a reason not to after reading this?!

The Top 10 Reasons Why You Should Be Attending the 9th Annual Moms Rock Mother’s Day Tea & Brunch on Saturday, May 12, from 11:00am- 1:30pm at the Spa Clubhouse at Southern Highlands:

#10

One of Las Vegas’ hottest local acts will be there!  We’ve just announced cappella singing sensations Mosaic will be our featured performers this year, bringing their unique blend of funk, pop, rock and jazz to the Moms Rock stage.  We can’t wait for you to hear these guys!

#9

You get to take the day off from the kitchen!  (Well, at least half the day!)  We’ll have a delectable array of brunch items to choose from and, in keeping with our theme, classic high tea selections as well.  Plus, we’ll be dining “al fresco” under tents and umbrellas in the stunning, shaded setting of Southern Highlands.  What could be more perfect on a lovely spring day?

#8

It’s one of the few true “all ages will love it” special events in the valley. Grandmothers, mothers, teens, tweens, babies – each year, Moms Rock brings all generations together for a day of fancy fun and cherished memories.  There’s something for everyone at Moms Rock!

#7

Your children can be princesses & pirates for the day!  Our friends from Rock the Tea will make sure to keep the little ones happy with princess and pirate outfits and activities.

#6

Finally a chance to wear a FASCINATOR!!  Why should the British royals get to have all the fun?  Don your haute hat or fab fascinator and let the inner fashionista in you come out and play for a day!  (Who knows – you may even win a fabulous prize during our hat parade!)

#5

You (or your daughter!) could “drive” off in a Mercedes convertible wearing a new diamond necklace with Katy Perry’s purse!  We’ll have an amazing array of silent auction items this year, including an electric children’s convertible Mercedes and one of the coveted candy cane purses autographed by Katy Perry!  You also can enter to win the drawing for the gorgeous mother/daughter diamond pendant necklaces created exclusively for Moms Rock by MJ Christensen Diamonds.

#4

You can be fashionable AND comfortable (for once!) at the same event!  Unless you want your heels to double as lawn aerators, might we suggest a more comfortable, yet every bit as fashionable, alternative to the sky-high heels you normally wear to events?  The wedge shoe is IN this summer, and will be your best choice for our garden party this year!  No sinking, ladies!

 #3

Your mom would rather spend a day with you than receive another beautiful bouquet of flowers. This year, give your mom what she really wants for Mother’s Day:  time with you.  Start her weekend off with fun, laughter and, most importantly, a truly special day with you at Mom’s Rock.  If you are looking for the perfect gift this year, Moms Rock is just the ticket!

#2

It’s a great way to support children living in care in our community! In southern Nevada, there are over 3,200 children living in the foster care system at any given time.  Of those children, 45 percent are unable to be kept with their siblings during this challenging chapter in their lives.  Once separated, the majority of these children are never reunited.  Child Focus at St. Jude’s Ranch for Children is the only organization in Clark County devoted to preserving sibling bonds while children are in foster care, and the Moms Rock event is the major annual fundraiser held to raise funds and awareness for the organization.

And the #1 reason you should attend this year’s Moms Rock event:

All proceeds raised during Moms Rock support Child Focus at St. Jude’s Ranch for Children.  Each year, Child Focus reunites siblings through a variety of programs and activities, including Camp To Belong and our holiday celebration, “Gift of Giving.”  Your support of Moms Rock helps keep these events and activities going, and allows more siblings to participate in these learning and esteem-building programs each year.

Tickets for Moms Rock are $80 for adults, $40 for children 12 and under, or $750 for a table of 10, and can be reserved by contacting Kevin@childfocus.org, or by calling 702-703-MOMS (6667).

If you cannot attend Moms Rock, but would like to help send a child to Camp To Belong, our annual summer camp, you can support our efforts this year by funding a “Campership”!  For just $240, you can send a sibling to camp for one day, or you can underwrite the entire week for $1,200.  Please call Kevin for information on our “Let’s All Go Camping” fund.  You can also CLICK HERE and watch a short video to learn more about the importance of Camp To Belong in these children’s lives.
