Tonight we held our first Murder Mystery night in the 3rd Capitular District. We have started holding a series of social activities in the District One in the fall and one in the spring) to given the Companions something to do more than just pay bills and do ritual work. The cast was made up of people from our District and their wives. In addition, we had a meal that each course was served between a scene of the play. Everyone seemed to get into participating in the event and afterwards immediately asked for when we would be doing this again. It was a relatively inexpensive night both in cost and charge to the members. This particular event was chaired by our District Membership chairman, who is Jim Potts, and we did have both non masons and non chapter members present. We had no introductions other than the cast in the play and the kitchen crew. In total, we had around 50 in attendance and will probably do some additional Murder Mystery Nights as I own 8 more in addition to the one we did tonight. The keys to its' success was planning along with a good cook and some men and women from the district who were willing to "ham it up" for everyone's enjoyment. I just wish I had remembered to take some pictures...by the way Pam was the murderer .... I think I had better be nice to her!
