UPDATE on Fall Costume Party Tonight @ 7

Hey guys! Just a few more details about our Fall Costume Party tonight at the campus house: 

1) I don't think we did this hot dog thing justice in our last email. Allow me to clarify: We are going to have a hot dog bar where you can build whatever kind of hot dog you want. We'll have all the ingredients needed for...
 
New York City style -- sauerkraut & brown mustard
Chicago style -- onions, tomatoes, pickle spears, relish, yellow mustard, and a sprinkle of celery salt
Carolina style -- coleslaw & barbecue sauce
Cincinnati style -- chili, diced onions, yellow mustard, & mounds of shredded cheese

It's a veritable tour of America! A cultural experience! Come experience a hot dog in a way you never have before! 

Then there's going to be s'mores for dessert! 

2) Bring camping chairs if you have them. We'll enjoy sitting around the fire in those. We can always use our regular chairs if we don't have enough camping chairs, but the camping chairs are more comfortable for sitting around the fire. 

3) We are doing a costume contest with prizes, but you don't have to wear a costume to get into the party.  So feel free to invite your friends at the last minute. Just have them come on over even without a costume if they can't think of anything to throw together real fast. They'll still have fun. 

If you've forgotten, the contest categories are:  
Funniest 
Most Creative 
Best Movie/History Character 
& Best Overall 

See you soon!
