Vamp, you and the Contessa just can't watch. You've gotta get in the bocce action. And, if you want a place in the tournament, I'm sure you two could beat me for a place on the board. I'm the worst bocce player Oakland has ever seen.

We sure hope you can make it up!
We are whirlwinding through the east coast, but once we get back it will be a full press to get everything set up.
Picked up some inspiration for new cocktails from the fine bars in New York as well as the discovering a funny little cocktail book from Hawaii in a thrift store in St Augustine. The drinkin' at Hinky Drinks is going to be good.

Aloha! With just a scant three weekends before TikiBocce IV (tagline: "Just what the Doctor ordered") and the evite has gone out!
Basic rundown:
11am: Hinky Drinks at Lund Manor throws its doors akimbo, to the enjoyment of all. Original punches and hand-made cocktails await thirsty travellers.
12pm-ish: The Mai Kai Gents will begin their Hapa Haole serenades. The BBQ grills should be fully engulfed by this point.
11-ish to 2: Hot Bocce Pre-lim Action! First 8 teams to win their open matches move on to the official TikiBocce Tournament.
3pm: TikiBocce Tournament begins, whittling down the teams, by hook, crook, and fight-to-the-death mano-a-mano combat (if deemed necessary), until one emerges victorious!
Before sunset: The TikiBocce IV Awards Ceremony.
*If there are out-of-town guests who wish to join the festivities and are hesitant to do so, due to lodging questions, Lund Manor proper has several accommodations that are currently available. Please inquire within. As with most everything in life, first come, first served.

The only dress code ever required for Tiki Bocci is clothing. Yes, we will all be wearing clothes. Zippers functioning etc. Beyond that it's up to you to address your own level of creativity in apparel.

Dress appropriate for the weather. We prefer aloha wear or bowling attire.
Safety pins will be handed out as deemed necessary by your hosts.
