The Mount Prospect Historical Society will hold “Woodstock – 1 Night of Food, Peace and History,” its eighth annual History in the Headlines dinner, on Saturday, April 13, at Rob Roy Country Club, 505 E. Camp McDonald Rd., Prospect Heights, from 6-10 p.m.
Travel back in time 50 years to celebrate and toast the days of hippies and rock music with the Mount Prospect Historical Society, set amidst the food, music and décor of 1969.
A series of authentic hippie food stations will be set up around the room, ranging from hamburgers and hot dogs to hors d’oeuvres of the time, vegetables, rice, yogurt parfaits, a salad bar, brownies and “Alice B. Toklas fudge” for a nearly authentic experience.
There will also be a cash bar for everyone with signature cocktails of the era and vintage beers like Pabst Blue Ribbon, Schlitz and Miller Hi Life offered.
Party-goers are welcome to dress casually or in appropriate hippie garb and after dinner they will be entertained by the “ElliePresents” production team which will reminisce about that pivotal moment in modern history and its long-lasting effects on this country.
There will also be a challenging Woodstock trivia competition, inserted during the ElliePresents’ intermission, and a raffle chocked with concert tickets and appropriately themed items.
Tickets are $50 per person and may be reserved individually or in tables of ten beginning March 1. To purchase tickets via PayPal, log onto www.mtphist.org. Or you may phone the Historical Society at 847/392-9006, Tuesday through Thursday during office hours, to reserve tickets and pay by credit card.
All of the proceeds from this event will benefit the Mount Prospect Historical Society’s Operating Fund.Tell a Friend
