DESCRIPTION:Start tapping those toes now for “Swing Into Spring,” the third annual 
 swing dance benefit for the Lorenzo Theater Foundation, to be held on 
 Saturday, May 21, 2005, 7 pm to midnight. Reflecting the Lorenzo 
 Theatre’s 1947 opening, the event will once again have a unique 1940s 
 ambiance as, through the generosity of Mather Aviation, it will be held in 
 one of Mather’s airplane hangars at the Hayward Airport, 19990 Skywest 
 Drive, Hayward.  Now in its third popular year, “Swing Into Spring” is 
 a great evening for couples, singles, and groups of friends to get out and 
 dance the night away. Live music from the 1940s by "Three O'Clock Jump," 
 featuring the lead trumpeter and female vocalist from well-known local 
 orchestra "Blast from the Past," will provide fabulous Big Band music for 
 swing dancing. Top-rated exhibition dancers will present several numbers, 
 and an array of vintage cars, planes, and 1940s memorabilia will be on 
 display. Hors d’oeuvres, a no-host bar, and a raffle of several exciting 
 prizes will round out the evening, which raises funds to help save the 
 vintage Lorenzo Theatre in San Lorenzo.    "At last year’s event, people 
 were already asking us to do it again this year," said Nancy Shelvy, 
 president of the board of the Lorenzo Theater Foundation. "We’re looking 
 forward to a wonderful evening with hundreds of people out on the dance 
 floor in support of the Lorenzo Theatre. Anyone who enjoys swing dancing, 
 the 1940s era, or—especially—wants to see the Lorenzo Theatre restored 
 to its former glory should make sure they don’t miss Swing Into Spring 
 2005.”  The Lorenzo Theater Foundation Inc. is a non-profit organization 
 dedicated to preserving and restoring the historic Lorenzo Theatre in San 
 Lorenzo. The Lorenzo Theatre, built in 1947, is an Art Deco gem which has 
 sadly fallen into disrepair since it closed its doors in 1982. Due to the 
 efforts of the Lorenzo Theater Foundation, the Theatre was named a 
 California Historic Resource in 2001.  In September of 2002 the Lorenzo was 
 designated an Historical Preservation (HP) District by the Alameda County 
 Board of Supervisors.  “Swing Into Spring” is generously sponsored by 
 local businesses including Arroyo Veterinary Clinic; Bohannon Foundation; 
 Bonanza Realty; Civic Partners; Ellie Mae, Inc.; Hayward Area Historical 
 Society; Hesperian Cleaners; Supervisor Alice Lai-Bitker; Supervisor Nate
