Tradition with a Twist

Sadie Hawkins Dance flips the conventional social script! Named after the spirited character from the old "Li'l Abner" comic strip, this celebration encourages women to take the lead by asking men to be their dates. It's all about empowerment, breaking conventions, and having fun while turning traditional expectations upside down. At our BGCY Sadie Hawkins Dance, we're embracing this spirit of taking charge and making bold moves—just like our supporters do when they step up to change lives in our community. Whether you're extending the invitation or graciously accepting one, this playful tradition adds an extra layer of fun to an already meaningful evening.
