To mark the centenary of The Great Gatsby, our party this time will be themed around F. Scott Fitzgerald’s seminal novel. Guests will be challenged to shoot Gatsby by his pool, run down Myrtle with an automobile and, for something less bloodthirsty, design a cover for a new edition of the book. Prizes for our famous Grand Raffle will include not only copies of the novel and Fitzgerald’s other works, and DVDs of the various film version, but such goodies as Gatsby-themed boardgame, a cast recording from stage musical adaptation, some bootlegger liquor and a model of a bootlegger’s car, a map of New York speakeasies, a green light and an egg (standing in for West Egg).
