SUNDANCE TICKETS The 15th annual Sundance Celebration is this Labor Day weekend. Tickets are $60 for both events (the auction and the dance), or $40 for one event. Buy your tickets in advance online at www.SundanceBenefit.com or at the CAMP Rehoboth office (39 Baltimore Avenue, 302-227-5620). The Auction is Saturday, August 31 from 7-10 p.m. The Dance is Sunday, September 1 from 8 p.m.-2 a.m. Both events are being held at the Rehoboth Beach Convention Center.
DJ's & DANCING If you like to shake it on the dance floor, the final weeks of summer are filled with quality DJs and dance events. On August 23-25, Julian Marsh is spinning at Cloud 9. On Saturday, August 24, DJ Abel is returning for the Renegade's Island Rituals party. On Labor Day weekend, look for guest DJs such as David Knapp on Saturday, August 31 at the Renegade, Darryl Strickland at Cloud 9 all weekend long and Mark Thomas spinning at Sundance. And don't forget Tommy Walton and Rob Harris at Yum Yum's Sunday Tea Dance from 5-8 p.m. AND, there's a DJ weeknights at Blue Moon! WIGS, WIGS, WIGS We've been dressing up in drag all summer at parties like 312 Bayard's "Queens of the Screen" and 1015 5th Street's "Egyptian Gods," and all that time the best place to buy wigs was right under our powder-puffed noses. Take note: Look of Hair Salon (627 Rehoboth Avenue, across from Double L) has a massive collection of wigs for just about any drag persona you can think of. It may be the end of summer, but it's never too late to start preparing for next year. Stop in and take a look before you close up your beach house. For more information, call 302-226-9094 and ask for Bobbi Berry. TOSCA'S KISS IS #1 Remember the book Tosca's Kiss by Tyler Colby? You know, the murder mystery that takes place in Rehoboth Beach, the one you wrote off as pure beach trash? Well, apparently, it recently grabbed the number one spot on Amazon.com for books "uniquely popular in Washington, D.C." It's no surprise, really. How could anyone resist drawing parallels between the book's party-throwin' Pete Sweet and real-life social queen, Chris Riss? HOSTAGE BARBIE! Yesyou too can have your very own Hostage Barbie Doll. It's simple: Put on a skit at the CAMP Rehoboth Follies... don't win 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place... then go to the 1st place winner's party (in this case, 88 Sussex's E! True Hollywood Story) and KIDNAP the golden Barbie award from the mantle! It's that easy. Your next step is to send a ransom note to the CAMP Rehoboth office in hopes of being written up in Letters (namely NEWS & NOTES), to garner all the publicity you didn't get when you lost 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place at the Follies. Whoever you are, you're a marketing genius. We want you on the LOVE committee for 2003! And please, dear Kidnapper, bring Barbie back alive and in one piece by Labor Day. www.BeachHouseNetwork.com When making arrangements to buy or sell shares in a beach house next summer, remember BeachHouseNetwork.com is still up and running. You can even post your rental property. In fact, there are a few properties (24 Josephine and 6 George Street) that are already accepting rental applications for next summer. Next to the annual Beach House Rush Party held the first weekend in February, www.BeachHouseNetwork.com is the next best way to ensure your spot in the sun for 2003! Get on the NEWS & NOTES e-mail distribution list to receive Rehoboth information all winter long! Simply send an e-mail with your first and last name to NewsNotes@aol.com.
