THE MAIN ROOM
Speakeasy Hour (7-8)
During the prohibition era, illegal bars called speakeasies popped up throughout America. To gain admittance, you had to whisper a password through a small opening in the back door to the attendant (usually a mafia strongman). Run by gangsters, speakeasies were a popular escape where the liquor flowed freely, the gambling stakes were high and the music was infectious... as long as the cops were bought off.
Throughout the hour, expect to Dance to some of the greatest jive, big band and jazz music. Prohibition themed games and contests will be held, with $100 worth in Drink prizes given to the winners!
A mock casino table will be open until 9. Play will be by donation for covenant house. win big and you could receive free raffle tickets!
