Calling all characters

Shenanigans and character costumes to highlight Elkhorn Rotary event

Elkhorn Rotary Club is calling all characters to join the shenanigans at the club’s annual wine, beer and food tasting event on Friday, March 6.

​Eat, Drink and Shenanigans will feature more than a dozen vendors offering samples from local wineries, distilleries, breweries, upscale butcher chops, bakeries, gourmet food stores and more.

The event will be held 5 to 8 p.m. on Friday, March 6 at Sperino’s Monte Carlo Room, 720 N. Wisconsin St. in Elkhorn.

The theme for this event changes yearly, and the 2020 is “Calling All Characters.” A character could be a super hero, a character from a movie, TV show or cartoon, a historical figure or a famous person such as an athlete. It’s an opportunity to wear a favorite Halloween costume again or dress up as a Disney princess or comic book villain. Event-goers could also wear a themed T-shirt or sweatshirt rather than a full costume.

“People can even make up their own character,” said Bryan Iwicki, Rotary Club president. “It’s wherever your imagination takes you. Attendees are encouraged to dress in costume, although that isn’t mandatory.”​

​In addition to a variety of tastings, Eat, Drink and Shenanigans includes bucket raffles, a silent auction and cork pulls.

Tickets are $25 in advance or $30 at the door. They can be purchased at the Elkhorn Chamber of Commerce, at Matheson Memorial Library or from any Rotary member.
