Christy and Linda master the intricacies of unfolding paper turkeys.	Like workers at a Russian nuclear plant, Lisa and Terry carefully get the sauce ready.
The kitchen crew hard at work.	Terry gives the donor list his approval.
Pam checks in the door prizes.	Linda and Carol organize the desert table.
“Go ahead -- pick a card”: The front desk prepares for the onslaught while Alice practices her card tricks.	Once again, Master of Ceremonies Ron runs the show.
The Hernandez family enjoys dinner.	More families enjoying dinner.
Performing hits from The Lion King, Audrey starts the parade of performers.	Ever the salesperson, Joan gets the Hummitsch and Knauf families to buy raffle tickets.
A clarinet quartet of Lynn G., Don, Barb H. and Terry serenade the crowd.
Dan and Steve work on their Maynard Ferguson impressions.	Lynn and Drew play for the crowd.
With a look usually reserved for politicians caught on tape, Marty takes a break from the kitchen.	On a tight schedule, Doody checks his watch.
The Arts Alive! Jazz reflects for a moment before charging into their set.
Paul's stirring solo -- or heartburn -- has apparently touched Ron.	Bavarian hat? Hawaiian shirt? YES!
Bob Good rips a solo.	Band groupies like Barb L. hang with Terry.
The Arts Alive! Jazz celebrated “wall of sound” fills the room.	The crowd is simply captivated by the performance.
Landon makes another attempt to get at least some food in his mouth.	Kids love us! Ken and Emily play the role of music critic.
“Mom, PLEASE make the band stop!”	Bob relives the 1960s.
	“What the heck are they playing now?”
Tinley Park's finest amateur jazz big band spends another night by the bar.
“The party's over. You don't have to go home -- but you can't stay here!”
