Table requests accepted. Please list all members in your party when making your reservation. Billy Dean & Dawn are one of the most versatile musical groups today. They can easily perform the high-energy nightclub dance music, as well as the laid-back jazz standards preferred at many of Southwest Florida's prominent country clubs, and then turn around and mesmerize crowds with their Broadway and classical repertoire. Audiences find Dawn's ability to blend her classical training (graduate studies in voice at the Cincinnati College Conservatory Of Music) and popular style, impressive to say the least. With her three-octave range, she makes it possible to emulate artists like Sarah Brightman, Linda Eder, and Karen Carpenter to Mariah Carey and Cher. Although Billy is the more reserved half of the duo, his talent is certainly not. His piano playing, keyboard arrangements, saxophone solos and vocal ability provide the perfect combination of artistry. Billy and Dawn met in 1991 at Caesars Pocono Resorts where Billy was the musical director. Their musical and personal chemistry led them to marriage in 1993. From the time of their meeting, they performed at the Mall Of America (Bloomington, MN), the Grand Geneva Resort and Spa (Lake Geneva, WI - 4 seasons), and were the house band at the prestigious Coeur D'Alene Resort in Coeur D'Alene, ID. They also had the honor of opening The Club at The Ritz-Carlton, Naples, in November 1997.

The Town Center administrative office is located across from the Art Room. The hours are 9:00am-5:00pm, Monday-Friday.

Volunteers are just ordinary people with extraordinary hearts. They offer the gift of their time to teach, to listen, to help, to inspire, to grow, to learn. They expect no pay, yet the value of their work knows no limit. They've known the unexpected joy of a simple hug. They've planted tiny seeds of love in countless lives.
