Coral Springs to offer Bites-N-Sips event

Local Star Wars fans will have the chance to travel to a galaxy far, far away at a themed Bites-N-Sips on Friday, May 6 at Coral Springs City Hall on 9500 W Sample Rd.
 
In addition to food trucks, cocktail stations, vendors, and music, this event titled “May the Sith” will feature an array of Star Wars-themed activities.
 
Guests can take part in a themed Costume Contest with a chance to win Disney Gift Cards. First and second-place winners in both child and adult categories will be selected by a panel of Star Wars enthusiasts. Each first place winner will receive a $200 Disney Gift Card. Two, second place winners will each receive a $50 Disney Gift Card.  All contestants will receive a participation prize.  The costume contest is scheduled to begin at 7:15 p.m. Participants must register in advance at the City of Coral Springs orange tent from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m.  Space is limited. 
 
Rounding out the theme, guests can also interact with roaming Star Wars characters, take part in a Chewbacca “Roar” contest, and enjoy the playing of the “Imperial March” by the Coral Springs Charter School Marching Band. Child attendees will enjoy an inflatable AT-AT Walker obstacle course, and can create an “out-of-this-world” Mother’s Day card for the special mom or mother-figure in their lives.
 
Guests will also be invited to hitch a ride via Coral Springs’ new Rideshare program. The program will be pilot tested at this event, offering transportation from the parking lot at the Coral Springs Center for the Arts to the event at the City Hall Lawn.
