Holiday events at Betty Danger’s Country Club
Mary’s Christmas (Pop-Up) Palace: Starting Thursday, Nov. 15, 4 pm and running until around Feb. 28th. “Where mismatch Christmas decor with a retro flare plasters every nook and cranny…Betty, until now, has kept her multiple personality disorder under wraps, but recently Mary has emerged. Mary, Betty’s other personality, has gone overboard with everything Christmas, including tacky bows, lights, garland, plastic blow molds, tinsel and twinkle, and even homemade coffee filter snowflakes. Mary will debut an all new American country club classics menu with Christmas time eats and drinks for the entire winter season. The fireplaces will roar, the classic Christmas tunes will soar. The scent of peppermint and whiskey will fill the room, making everyone feel toasty and a little more huggy than normal.” (Betty Danger’s will be open on Christmas evening at 8 pm for Christmas adulting and merriment.)
