Murder Mystery Dinner at the Deadwood Saloon March 13

A Signature VMCC Fundraising Event

Date: Friday, March 13, 2026
Time: 6:00–8:00 p.m.
Location: Vida McKenzie Community Center

On Friday, March 13, the Vida McKenzie Community Center will host a lively, fully immersive Murder Mystery Dinner, transporting guests back to an 1880s Wild West saloon for an evening of mystery, laughter, and community connection.

This one-of-a-kind event blends dinner, live performance, and interactive storytelling. Guests will follow clues, question suspects, and work together at their tables to solve the mystery—while enjoying themed décor, saloon-style entertainment, and a few surprises along the way. Prizes will be awarded for Best Dressed and for the table that correctly identifies the culprit.

A Community-Powered Production

This event is being built by the community, for the community. From actors and musicians to decorators and behind-the-scenes helpers, the production relies on volunteers who want to be part of something creative, fun, and meaningful. No acting experience is required—there’s a role for everyone, onstage or off.

We’re looking for:

Live mystery actors & performers
Event-day volunteers (decor, check-in, hospitality)
Promotions & outreach helpers

Sponsorship Opportunities
We are also seeking event sponsors to help make this fundraiser shine. Sponsorship support helps cover production costs while increasing the overall impact of the event—and offers a meaningful way for businesses and individuals to support the McKenzie River Valley community.
