Northern Tier Library Plans Bootlegger's Ball

Throw on that beaded dress, grab your fedora and relive the "Roaring '20s" Gatsby style. 

The Northern Tier Library is ending prohibition again with a "Bootlegger's Ball" at 7 p.m. Saturday, April 13.

The fundraiser includes live music and dancing reminiscent of the bygone era.

Guests will come dressed in 1920s or 30s apparel for a costume contest and  will even get lessons in dancing the Charleston.

Purchase the $35 ticket and receive a password to gain entry into the event.

Enjoy jazz music, casino games, photographs and a floor show, along with a cash bar featuring vintage cocktails, beer and wine.

Quite different from last year's sit-down Titanic dinner, hors d'oeuvres will be served up this year.

The mouth-watering menu includes appetizers like butternut squash ravioli, shrimp cocktail, individual baked brie and mini crab cakes plus a coffee bar and mini desserts. Click here for the complete menu.

Tickets are on sale now at the library, and online at www.northerntierlibrary.org. Proceeds benefit the library. Call 724-449-2665 for more information.
