On Saturday, October 19th, 120 ticket holders will gather at 4:00PM or 5:45PM (depending on the rotation you choose) for drinks and hors d'oeuvres in the Historic Strater Hotel's Pullman Ballroom for a preview of the night's events. Guests will leave the Strater an hour after doors open for your rotation, in groups of 20, through three locations during the evening: Rotation 1: the basement of the Hermosa Cafe, The Durango Winery/Subterrain, and the underground tunnel beneath El Rancho Tavern OR Rotation 2: The May Palace, The Elks Lodge Attic, and Hair Fusion. At each location, guests can enjoy drinks and hors d'oeuvre as well as a haunted history of the location from a representative of Durango's very own Horsefly History Tours and a 5-minute story from a 9-R teacher who has benefitted from a Durango Education Foundation grant. There will be a drawing for prizes at each stop. At the evening's end, guests will return for the announcement of silent auction winners & costume contest winners, dessert and drinks, and our gratitude. Tickets for the event cost $150 each.
