The annual dinner dance features the John Skinner Band. Dinner is from 5 to 9 p.m., dancing is 9 p.m. to midnight. John Skinner and his band are no strangers to the Lake Tahoe area. The mountain tradition brings music and food fans out to dance. Some come from as far as San Francisco, tripping the light-fantastic even as snow melts outside the historic lodge.
Formal attire is encouraged.
Trumpet player John Skinner has led successful bands in Northern California for many years. He grew up in Oakland and formed his first orchestra at the age of 16. Since, he has performed worldwide and he and his wife Susan distinguish themselves as band leaders who actually love to dance. Vocalist Susan Skinner usually has time to leap onto the wooden floor and the couple is a lively addition to any ballroom. Materials contained within this site may not be used without permission.
