5:30PM: Tapas will be served.
6:00PM: Doors will close. Please ensure you are in by this time at the very latest. The Mambo is going to close the doors to ensure no walk-in's from the street occur. This is for our sake. We're going to have all kinds of valuables laying around so locking the door is going to help prevent theft. If you are in dire straits and will be late, I will provide a few cell #'s you can call so we can meet you at the door. But please, do try to get in by 6PM at the latest.
7:30PM: Dinner will be served. It will be a Cuban Carnivale style buffet. Just like last year.
After dinner: Cigar smoking to your heart's content!! (NOTE: So there's no confusion. You can smoke all you want from 1PM to close) Walk around, get to catch up with old friend and meet new ones. And definitely stop by the auction and prize table.
10:00PM: "Last Call" for silent auctions & raffles.
10:30PM: The conclusion of silent auctions & raffles.
The menu includes:
Mains:
Cuban style, whole roasted pig
Chicken
Salmon
Side Dishes:
rice, beans, salad, congri, steamed vegetables, plantains and yuca
Entertainment:
We will have live music. Cuban guitar whiz Elmer Ferrer will play three sets throughout the night.
Also, a lovely Cuban dancer will make the rounds.
Auctions & Prizes:
We are going to be conducting silent auctions for various cigars and cigar related items. I will be putting out a call for donations shortly. All proceeds will go to charity. The charity of choice will be the same as last year. The Nicaraguan Mission. See here for details.
There will also be a few raffles. Auction and raffle details will be posted in a separate thread. We will be looking for folks to donate cigars and cigar related items to go towards the charity.
