The Apopka Chambers version of Tony Manero and Stephanie Mangano’s dance from Saturday Night Fever portrayed by Paul Hunt and Karen Ross set the tone for the 18th annual Administrative Professional Day Fashion Show presented by EMBARQ on Wednesday, April 23rd at The Captain and the Cowboy. A sold out crowd enjoyed the thirty-nine models dancing to music from this era and modeling clothes from Mosquito Creek Outdoor and Beall’s.
