Events Ongoing Throughout the Week of Empress Daze:

MURDER MYSTERY DINNER

July 12th from 6 pm
Tickets $35....book early because seating is limited

Pipelines, Politics, Muder and Mayhem. It's all happening in Empress at our Murder Mystery Dinner sponsored by the Empress & District Historical Society to raise funds towards the restoration of the CPR Station Museum.

All participants play a character in the plot ...you'll receive a package of background information and other details before the big night. There's only one murderer but nearly everyone's a suspect...even you!

You don't have to dress the part...but it can be more fun if you do...and there's a prize for best costume.

Murder isn't the only crime guests are likely to encounter. Blackmail, bribery, theft, fraud and extortion also lurk not far beneath the surface. Maybe YOU can claim the rewards for solving the puzzles.
