The Rockford Park District grounds do not allow smoking, alcohol, or weapons. Period costumes are welcome, but not required.*

Victorian Christmas Murder Mystery​

Picture
The halls are decked, and Rose is hosting her first Victorian Light party!
​

The first house in town to have electricity, all of Rockford's elite are in attendance. Known for her flair for over-the-top events, everyone has decided to attend, either out of respect for the hostess, curiosity of electricity, or for the chance to socialize with the upper echelon of Rockford society. 


Unfortunately for the happy party goers, no one knows that there is a killer in their midst who plans to strike tonight!

​Speakeasy Murder Mystery
June 27th  6-9:30pm

Picture
Dust off your flapper dress, zoot suits and Tommy guns and get  ready for your Roaring Twenties Murder Mystery Party! At the height of prohibition, morale was high, morals were at an all-time low, and most of the country was controlled by the Mafia. 

At this cozy little hot spot, hidden in the old Tinker mansion, you will find the best night scene around. Drink, dance, sing and mingle with other like-minded individuals but be careful, wherever there is a speakeasy there is always the mafia…and the police. On a night like tonight, with tensions running high, you might get caught in the middle of a bloody dispute. 
Enjoy your night but keep your guard up, we’d hate to lose any of our clientele!
