Enjoy an array of complimentary appetizers with a cash bar available. One lucky guest detective’s ticket will be drawn for a Grand Prize.

Proceeds of the event will benefi t Crosswinds Youth Services, a nonprofi t organization located in Cocoa which provides emergency shelter for children ages 10-17, as well as counseling, case management, transitional living, and other services for youth in crisis and their families.
