I have been working with MaryBeth and a couple other people on New Years, here are the dteails.

We have rented Murphey's Bleachers in Chicago, it is within walking distance of our houses. It is open bar from 8pm until 2am, this includes beer, wine, liquor etc.... (basically whatever you want). Food is also included, it is like a dinner buffet(pasta, salad, sandwiches, dessert and a couple other things). There will also be a DJ and dancing the whole night as well.

And yes it really is only $25, the bar owners have never done a New Years party so they do not know what to expect. So it works out well for us! If you are interested let me know asap, you can send all money to me ( you will get a wrist band the night of at the door). Try and let me know at the very latest by Dec. 22nd. I hope a lot of you are interested and will come, it should be alot of fun! Hope to hear from everyone. Happy Holidays!!!!!!!!!!!!!
