Good Life Club Trips & Events
Tribute to Elvis
Thursday, November 21
Elvis - the poor kid from Mississippi who took the music he loved - soul, gospel, and hillbilly - and transformed it into a phenomenon that stands the test of time in the world of rock and roll.
The Jacob Henry Estate Mansion will be hosting a Tribute to Elvis with highly respected tribute artist, Logan Ramey. Ramey’s Elvis brings high energy, audience interaction, and a true respect for Elvis to his authentic performances of Elvis’s greatest and well-loved hits. Backed by The Memphis Flash Band, expect a musical experience!
Upon arrival to the estate, guests will have time to take a self-guided tour of the beautifully kept mansion. Jacob Henry was a wealthy railroad magnate who built his home among the other stately merchant-owned homes along what was known as “Silk Stocking Row”. Built over a three year period, the mansion features elaborate, hand-carved wood throughout including ornately carved fireplaces in every room and beautiful Victorian furniture. Named a National Historic Landmark, it is one of the largest and best examples of Renaissance Revival architecture still standing in the state of Illinois.
After touring the mansion and prior to the show, guests will enjoy a meal of Grilled BBQ Breast of Chicken complimented by au gratin potatoes and vegetables. The meal also includes fresh tossed green salad, warm rolls, whipped butter, dessert, and coffee or tea. Cash bar available for all other beverages.

Thursday, March 13

In March we start thinking about Spring - and spring means baseball!
But during World War II, the face of baseball changed. An all-female baseball league was formed in the Midwest due to the shortage of male players who were drafted or enlisted to serve their country. A League of Their Own is based on the true story of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League and follows competitive sisters Dottie Hinson (Geena Davis) and Kit Keller (Lori Petty) as they spar with each other and scout Ernie Capadino (Jon Lovitz) and their grumpy has-been coach Jimmy Dugan (Tom Hanks) on their way to fame.
Tuesday Talks
Good Life Club will host a gathering at Brooklife Church in Mukwonago on the second Tuesday of every other month from 10:00AM - 11:30AM. Tuesday Talks will bring in a speaker - or two - to present various topics of interest. Or, we may just have a fun activity. The talks will be free of charge and open to members and their guests. Registration is necessary, however, due to space availability.
Wrap it Up!
Tuesday, December 10
If you find it difficult or just don’t like to wrap presents, bring your gifts on December 10, and our team of helpful elves will wrap them up for you. While you wait, you can visit with friends and enjoy some holiday cheer! We’ll supply the wrapping paper, tape, and bows - or use yours if you prefer.
