Signs of the Times: Get Kool with the Gang! A Huge Success!

On Saturday night, May 4th, the 80s flashed back and bustin a move with Bridges was the place to be, if you didn’t want to be a square. Held at the W.O. Smith Music School, Bridges’s 6th Annual Signs of the Times event brought back neon colors, leg warmers, parachute pants, reallly big hair, and Members Only jackets all to help raise money to support Bridges’s programs and services for the Deaf and hard of hearing community. It was a totally radical night with the 80s band, Max Headroom, bringing the music back in pure 80s style, as guests danced and had a awesome time.

We would like to thank our Event Sponsors:

Regions, Rogers Group, Bridgestone, Bridgestone Americas Trust Fund, Baptist Healing Trust, Cochlear Americas, Dorothy Cate and Thomas Frist Foundation, Franklin Synergy Bank, LBMC Healthcare Services, Sorenson,
