[December 31, 1997: TGN, Des Plaines, IL] “The 16th Annual New Year’s Eve Party (NYEP) and Costumes Of Course” was a smashing success. There were 40 attendees making the party rather festive. Partygoers were treated to drumming of the Japanese taiko by Patty Adachi and the African djembe by John Yost.
At midnight, we had a phenomenal dry ice effect throughout the house. The first wave left around 2:30am and the rest of the crew went around 4:30am. And, the official eZine-TGN Party Rating is in: 9.0 out of 10! This is a real good rating which we haven’t seen in many years.
