Mad Max: Beyond the Military Zone!

Our next big PartyPaloozaNW Costume Party will be held on Saturday, March 8th, 2008!

And the theme is... Mad Max, Beyond the Military Zone!

The movie we are loosely basing our theme on was the third and final installment in the Mad Max series starring Mel Gibson and Tina Turner, released in 1985. (For a synopsis go to: http://en.wikipedia.o...)

We thought it would make a great theme, ripe with costume possibilities! Here are a few ideas to get you started:

• Post-apocalyptic
  
• Futuristic
  
• Post-retro
  
• Cyberpunk
  
• Steampunk
  
• Post-nuclear
  
• Military
  
• Camouflage
  
• GI Joe
  
• Survivalist
  
• Tina Turner
  
• and Mel Gibson
  

We will be hosting the party at the newly redecorated SAFOMA (Sammamish Forrest Manors) Cabana in Redmond, WA. The Cabana has room for 80 people and we recommend everyone purchase their tickets as soon as possible because we anticipate selling out.

To purchase your tickets online, to go: Brown Paper Tickets (http://www.brownpaper...) or call their live 24/7 Hotline 1-800-838-3006 and ask for tickets to the Mad Max event on March 8th! Ticket prices are $12.00 per person online or $15.00 per person at the door. We will have a limited amount of tickets available at the door on a first come, first served basis. Ticket prices are non-refundable.

The ticket price includes 1 drink ticket and 3 raffle tickets. Guests must be 21 and older, please bring your ID. We will have Snacks, Sodas and a No Host Bar. A DJ will be spinning the tunes and we may have Guitar Hero set up. As usual, prizes will be awarded to the best costumes!

This party is also a fundraiser for ROOTS (Rising Out Of The Shadows) which is a homeless shelter for teens and young adults. Their website is located at: http://www.rootsinfo.... and ALL funds raised at the party will be donated directly to ROOTS on behalf of Kumar, a dear friend of ours who passed away last year.

ROOTS was Kumar's favorite charity and we want to do raise money as a memorial to how much he meant to us. We are also sponsoring a clothing drive and would also like to encourage people to bring coats, gloves, hats, new socks and new underwear which is greatly needed by ROOTS at this time of year.

We'll have some great raffle prizes and silent auction items. If you or you company has something you would be willing to donate, please let us know! Since it is a fundraiser, we would also appreciate it if people could bring chips/dips and appetizers to share.

Its going to be another fabulous evening with lots of fun, friendly people. We hope you can join us!
