Note From The Director
We are happy to say that we reached our goal on KickStarter.com of raising $5,000 to help finish “Old Fashioned”. A big THANK YOU to everyone who donated and to the people who have been sending words of encouragement and well wishes. I have put so many hours into this documentary that I cannot express the joy I feel as I see the piece taking shape and coming together. A huge burden has been lifted off my shoulders knowing now that we have the money to pay for things like image rights, larger external drives, festivals fees, an editor budget and many other things that need money in order to get our documentary to the public. Thanks again for all the support and donations.

Director of "Old Fashioned: The Story of the Wisconsin Supper Club"
Supper Club Night at Kenmore Studios
Tonight we will be taking part in a Wisconsin Supper Club night at Kenmore Live Studios in Chicago, IL. Kenmore Live Studios tapes 30 min shows where chefs and fashion designers come to show you their skills and share their inside tips. Tonight’s show is all about the Wisconsin supper club! I will be there to discuss my documentary and to show some new never before released clips from it. Chef James from The HobNob supper club in Kenosha, WI will be there demonstrating how to cook some classic Wisconsin supper club fare. If you are in Chicago you can join us for the taping. If you want to come to the taping you can find the information about attending on our Facebook event page. Not in Chicago? No worries! You can watch the taping stream live on the internet. The show will start streaming live at 7 p.m. CST. The people watching it stream live can still participate by sending in any questions they have via a live chat. If you miss the stream when it happens live an edited version will be posted later on YouTube. We will post that link on our website when it’s available. We’re excited for tonight and can’t wait to share our love for the supper club with Chicago!
