Giveaway: The perfect Valentine’s Date Night

The countdown to Valentine’s Day is happening now with only 17 days to go.

Mamas, don’t worry about coming up with a fun plan for what to do on Valentine’s Day/Night. We’ve not only got a plan, we’ve got free tickets (plus an affordable option for childcare to go with it).

ABOUT THE SHOW:

The Jones Center will be hosting a comedy show called “My Funny Valentine” on February 14th with two incredible standup comedians at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. Join comedians Pat Hazell, one of the original writers for NBC’s Seinfeld and a veteran of The Tonight Show, and Amy Barnes, featured on Comedy Central and National Lampoon, as they join forces for an evening of hilarious and heartwarming standup comedy.

Topics include relationships, dating, parenting and family life, and there will be a chance to ask for free relationship advice as Pat and Amy answer questions from the audience. Bring your sweetheart, bring your friends and bring your sense of humor for an evening of laughter ever after.

Note: All of the comedy shows at The Jones Center feature “clean” standup comedy that everyone can enjoy.

CHILD CARE OPTION: 

We know from experience that sometimes the toughest thing about going out with your spouse or your friends is finding someone to watch the kids. But now you have another option that’s easy on the budget but big on entertainment value.

The Jones Center recently launched chaperoned evenings for kids in the 5 to 12 age range. Childcare will include fun activities, interactive games, and a family-friendly movie.

You can use this option for the comedy show on Valentine’s Day or on any of the upcoming dates listed below. It’s a great way to get some well-deserved alone time, go on a date night or Moms’ Night Out, or use it to unwind around the Jones Center. (You could even meet up with a friend and do the indoor walking trail at The Jones Center while your kids are in childcare.)
