November 8, 2008 - "One Night With You (Elvis) Tribute Dinner Show" 8th Annual "Salute to the King" at the Hilton Hotel (Washington Dulles Airport)And what a night is was! "Elvis" performed until after 1am. There was 6 Elvis impersonators each with his own unique style performing songs from the King's movies, TV shows and concert tours. One Elvis sang only songs from the movie "King Creole" while another Elvis sang only songs from the Aloha concert. Some songs were well known and other weren't. There were ladies in the audience who gave roses and leis to each Elvis. Others lined up for the "kiss" or the familiar scarf. The youngest female fan was around 6 years old. The oldest was anybody's guess. | ||

October 26, 2008 - Witches' Brew (afternoon tea) - 2-5PM No bones about it…… Something’s was Brewing…… The 13th council meeting of the Castlevania Witches’ Guild (need at least 13 for a quorum) met at Queen's Martha's and had a scary good time. The food was ghostly sumpuous. The witches' garbs were sexy, twitchy, and sometimes downright ugly. Queen Witch Martha gave us an overview of witches and Halloween. Vice Queen Holly showed us how to apply witches makeup on her sister witch Val. Witch Sylvia did a superb job showing us the latest in witches' fashion. We even were given a history of brooms used by witches through the ages. Vice Queen Fran provided every witch with their misfortune for the day. After stuffing ourselves, we held the ritual "stirring of the pot" to rid us of our misfortunes and grant our wishes for the future. |

June 14, 2008 - Swing back in time to a 1920s Speakeasy! Flappers and gangsters were everywhere as guests learned to dance the Charleston and the Lindy (swing). Of course 'The Big Cheese' got his comeuppance but the mystery was solved and the killer was taken to jail. Gambling and drinking 'the juice' got everyone into the spirit of having fun, fun, fun. |

Pat Bemis hosted a Valentine theme bunco for us on February 10, 2008 at 1:30 at her house! Everyone wore something red and some ladies even wore hearts. The highlight was the passionate valentine ads that all the guests wrote. Listening to them was better than a romance novel. |
