Murder on Maui!

On the night of Thursday, April 14th, we held a Hawaiian themed murder mystery dinner.  We all sold plenty of tickets and there were about 115 people there.  We recruited several teachers to act out the murder while the guests enjoyed their four course meal.  The food consisted of teriyaki chicken skewers with a pineapple dipping sauce, salad with a mango vinaigrette, pulled pork, pineapple coleslaw, and sticky rice for the main dinner course, and for dessert - a caramelized banana tart topped with delicious coconut ice cream.  Other than the salad dressing being a little too spicy, we heard nothing but good words about the dinner.  Along with the dinner and theater, we also had a silent auction.  Some of the things we auctioned off were jewelry, desserts, alpaca fur products, a picnic backpack, prom tickets, and much more.  Between the auction and the dinner we raised about $1800!  We are all very excited because we each have our $1200 raised and there are only 37 days left until we are off to the Big Apple!
