September 12th & 13th, 2018
Wednesday Opener with Comedian and Magician Ben Seidman
Drinks at 3:30pm show starts at 4:00pm
Ben’s Signature style is a creative mixture of psychological magic, stand-up comedy, pick pocketing, and sleight-of-hand. The show is playful and fully interactive, resulting in a dynamic and awe-inspiring night. With each performance the audience realizes they are seeing something truly unique.
Wednesday Mixer 5:30 PM - 10:00 PM
Always a fun event, the Mixer will be in the SKY ROOM 18TH FLOOR. Enjoy networking in this festive environment. We will provide heavy hors d'oeuvres, luscious desserts, beer, wine, and non-alcoholic drinks. There will be a cash bar.

NGEAO’s Big LeBOWLski Tournament
Sheridan Lanes Bowling Alley - SE Corner of 31st Street & Sheridan Avenue.
“Obviously…you’re not a golfer.”
Plan to be a part of the industry’s largest and longest-running bowling tournament! Be you “Dude” or “Dudette”, pull on your aviator shades, your cardigan sweater or that ratty bathrobe and get to the alley, roll a few and maybe tilt back a white Russian. “Hey, careful man! There’s a beverage here!” Prizes to be awarded for the best-dressed Dude and Dudette. “Strikes” will again benefit the Special Olympics Bowling Tournament.
Bowlers that require transportation to/from the Hard Rock (highly recommended!) can catch the shuttle at the southwest entrance of the hotel at 1:15 PM, which leaves promptly at 1:30 PM. If you would like to be paired with a customer or co-worker on your bowling team, please direct those requests to John Points at [email protected]
See you at The Lanes! And remember, NGEAO………abides.
