Fundraising committee members Lorie Bollig and Marianne Cross announced an exciting new event to be held from 6:00 to 10:00 PM on February 28, 2009 at Turn of the Century: "Murder at the Deadwood Saloon" -- a murder mystery dinner.How does it work?
- Guests arrive at the party in character -- each guest receives a detailed character description in their invitation along with some background information on the party
- Guests recieve a prepared envelope with information and objectives
- Guests start mingling and verbally sleuthing as they enjoy the party
- A MURDER OCCURS!!! (eek!)
- An Investigator reads a short synopsis of how to proceed, Guests get more information and evidence and continue sleuthing
- Guests guess the murderer
- and finally -- the Murderer is revealed!
Tickets to this fun-filled evening, including Vittles (that's dinner, in case you aren't up on your Western slang), are available for $50 per person. This is for a good cause -- in fact, for many good causes -- since proceeds go to our own Altrusa Club of Montrose CO Foundation to help us with our many service projects, scholarships, and grants we award each year.
