Twilight Tour of Brooklyn's Historic Green-Wood Cemetery

Today Living Social is featuring a Twilight Tour of Brooklyn's Historic Green-Wood Cemetery followed by a Cocktail Reception (and beer from Brooklyn Brewery) and Music in the Cemetery for $25. There are only 15 Hours left to take advantage of this special tour, which is schedule for two nights only: Thursday, July 26th and  Saturday, July 28th from 8-10:30pm.

"There are few places more atmospheric than a cemetery at dusk – and Green-Wood is top notch when it comes to beauty and atmosphere. Normally in operation only during daylight hours, this special event will lead you on a twilight tour of the expansive grounds. As the sun sets on 478 spectacular acres, you’ll weave through stunning landscapes and visit the graves of prominent figures in New York and American culture.

After the walking tour, enjoy drinks, light refreshments and live accordion music in the cemetery. Our catacombs and several mausolea will be open, so you can wander around by torchlight and visit the opulent indoor resting places of Green-Wood as you sip your drink." - from the Official Green-Wood Cemetery Website

Crystal Lake Camp Counselor Party!

                                   via Nicci C.

We had a great time celebrating Friday the 13th at Sparrow Tavern in Astoria! We ate camp-inspired food and sipped camp-themed cocktails while the Friday the 13th Films were projected onto a creepy torn screen. It was a fabulously fun and creepy evening. I've been told that they hope to make this an annual event and I really hope that they do. There are two Friday the 13ths in 2013! We're looking forward to September and December of 2013!
