I would like to know if you are interested in having your meet up join us occasionally? I would love to have your support since you have this group of creative socializers. We are forming the Chicago squad of the Elvis Bar Crawl for Charity Check it out http://www.elvisbarcr... Our listing with pictures is on Craigs List http://chicago.craigs... Anyone with an Elvis costume can join, it's for fun and fund raising for charity. How it works: Did you see the web site of the NY Elvis Bar Crawl? They are very successful and dynamic. I am organizing a Chicago squad of amateur performers. Our charity will contact a group of bars ready to donate to provide an evening's entertainment for their customers... If you are interested, e-mail me. I have an office in Oak Park where I do my fundraising work A typical evening: The Chicago Elvis Bar Crawl makes all the arrangements with the bars ahead of time. We may "crawl" to 3-4 bars in one night. The squad assembles in costume and comes in to the participating bar, surprising the patrons... We pose for pictures and lead some crowd sing alongs, and maybe some of you amateur Elvis's do some lip syncs from a stage...then a semi- professional (there are 5 in Chicago) may come in and "challenge " our goofy group and is crowned "King" ...then he stays to entertain after we roll out and along to the next bar. That way the bar gets 2 hours of Elvis entertainment for their evening's donation to our Charity... plus we have collected money for posing for pictures, etc. Our charity interns work the crowd passing out small flyers about the charity, and also collecting the cash donations in a huge martini glass. Our street performing can make for a humorous evening. We may get also some publicity, the NY guys will do interviews etc I think we might perform once a month, there is no requirements... just a commitment to fun. and charity We have high hopes... and Haiti orphans need the money. visit our charity at http://www.betterfutu... We are a legal, 501 (c) (3) charity E-mail me today if you are interested or want to know more. I am also looking for squad sponsors: liquor, costumers, bar snacks, Hope to hear from all of you. And spread the word... the more the merrier.
