EVENT STARTS: 8:00PM
EVENT ENDS: 10:30PM
Great job, detectives! You've cracked the case! Now, it's time to celebrate your success and dance the night away in style. You might get lucky enough to get a spin on the dance floor with Sam Shovél, Dick and Dora Charleston, or maybe even Carmen Can deAmmo herself! All the best dressed detectives and hoodlums will be there!
Join us at the Broad & Fifth Ballroom (Broad Street Entrance) for a night of fun and celebration. Our very own Going Caching Deejay, Charlie (AspektCAS), will be playing the hits while we party in Downtown Rome. It will be a night to remember!
