Seaplace residents took a step back in time Feb. 15 as they enjoyed a night of Motown classics.

Local performer Kim Jenkins sang “strictly ‘60s music” for the crowd, including “Summer Wind,” “Stand by Me” and “My Girl.” Those gathered enjoyed cocktails before dinner and the performance.

Ford Thunderbird models made of paper and candy sat in the center of each table, which were named for various Motown artists including The Jackson 5, Diana Ross, Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye.
