AlooooooooHA!!!!

Greetings from the Ohana secret underground bunker, where we continue to work on our fiendish plots of supporting good causes through great events …and time travel.

And along the time travel lines, not only is Ohana weekend chock full of Eisenhower Era tiki goodness (and live bands, and shows, and food, and vendors, and fun fun fun) but we’ve also got the kickoff party on Thursday night bristling with 70s funk & 80s cheese.

Yeah, we’re setting the WABAC machine to just a few decades ago, and ripping it up, prom style!!

Held in Club Whispers (virtually unchanged since the mid 80s with disco balls, walls of colored lights, lasers, etc), “In the Air Tonight” promises to be a funkadelic, rockin’ good time, featuring DJ Hi-Fi Hijinks spinning all the classics of the 70s & 80s.

$25 gets you in, and we’re even including dinner, so break out your old bell bottoms, parachute pants, Aqua Net & Member’s Only jacket, and like totally be there!!

Prom the way it should have been, with great folks, food, music & cocktails. Don’t forget to vote for King & Queen!

You can add Prom tix to your Ohana package on the ticket page: http://www.luauatthelake.com/id4.html

You don’t want to miss this. I’m sure folks will be talking about it for months to come!

. . .

And now, on a totally different subject (sorry, I couldn’t come up with a segue for this one) I’ve been getting a lot of questions about what vendors are going to be there, so folks can gauge how much cash to bring (don’t worry, there’s an ATM right next door if you don’t want to travel with cash).

Well, I’m excited to say that we have an absolutely STELLAR lineup of vendors, most of whom are making their ONLY East Coast appearance at Ohana!!

I’ll be up at 8am power-walking the vending area everyday(I figure its better than the outlet malls nearby) but vending wont start until 11am on Saturday and 2pm on Friday (for those who WANT to be open. No pressure. We’ll be consumed with Room Crawl shenanigans & live music on Friday anyway!!)

So, what are you waiting for? If you haven’t bought tickets yet, don’t delay. We’re getting close to sold out!!
