This "Secret" dinner experience was offered as a Live Auction item at the 2010 SSL Crystal Ball.  The winning group of 10 received a rare invitation to dine with the President of Zanzibar in his magnificent home.  Once a mutually agreed upon date was set, the guests were asked to dress in their casually elegant African dinner attire, and to leave all their safari gear at "camp".  The President's aide, "Elliott", was subsequently sent in the President's "jeep", to escort the guests to the undisclosed "secret" location of his home.  To ensure their safe entry, the guests were greeted at the main entrance by the President's "guards".  Inside, more aides were waiting to adorn them with gifts; the jungle sounds echoed in the distance and the scents of native cuisine filled the air.  Unfortunately, the President was called away earlier in the day to attend to a sudden matter of "unrest" in his Village.  The evening delivered a magnificent feast of traditional native cuisine and entertainment, as well as many "wild" surprises only experienced in the "jungle", and only known within the "jungle".

Many thanks to the President and his "aides" for donating this magnificent dinner experience; and many thanks to the group of 10 for their purchase.  Your generosity helps us provide financial assistance to individuals and organizations in need, throughout the southern suburbs of Chicago.
