The 3rd Annual Club Skirts Women's Weekend is expected to once again draw thousands of women from across the country for mega-pool parties, golf tournaments, comedy shows, and dance parties over the Labor Day weekend.

Referred to by some as "an innocent variant" of a circuit party, the Women's Weekend brings with it performers that the Central Coast wouldn't normally host. such as Jill Sobule ("I Kissed a Girl") and dance diva Tia ("Slip and Slide").

"We're expecting the biggest weekend yet," said event producer Mariah Hanson."The women love the weekend and the Monterey Bay Area. This year we are getting more calls from all over the country, so we are expecting a lot of out of state women as well as the California girls!"

Comediennes Karen Ripley from California, Michele Balan from New York, and headliner Karen Williams from Ohio perform on Friday. DJ Paige Hodel spins at "Marooned!," the huge dance party on Saturday night featuring state-of-the-art light and sound system.

"I think the locals really like the weekend," said Hanson. "We received nothing but glowing reports. They've given us a great welcome both years and we appreciate it."
