Save the Conservatory Fundraiser - Murder Mystery Dinner, September 5-6, 2009
View our slideshow of pictures below.

The docents, volunteers and the Friends of Rockwood held a great fund raiser - a Murder Mystery Dinner. Cocktails, buffet dinner and interactive murder mystery game in the 19th century Victorian mansion. Victorian dress was optional!

We raised over $3,000 which will help finance extensive repairs to the 1852 Conservatory, the oldest surviving conservatory attached to a dwelling in the United States. Repairs estimated at $500,000 include: wood framework, door and window frames, heating and ventilation systems.
