upscale pub decor. Activities will include a balloon pop in which
guests pay to pop a balloon to determine their winnings (i.e. gift
certificate to restaurant), and a "Brew Pong" tournament (a version of
"beer pong" in which contestants accrue points by tapping the beer cup
with the ping pong ball or even more points when the ball goes inside
the beer cup). A grand prize will be awarded to the winners.
All festivities will feature the backdrop of the Charlotte skyline as
seen at the 5th Floor of the new Mint Museum Uptown, located across

About St. Peter's Catholic Church
St. Peter's Catholic Church is one of the oldest buildings on Tryon
Street, for which the original cornerstone was laid in 1851. According
to a former pastor, "For 90 years it was the only Catholic church in
the city. It's easy to interpret this church's role in the city in
light of the name Jesus gave Peter…Rock." The mission of St. Peter's
is to grow in faith through worship, prayer, outreach, education and
action. St. Peter's has been staffed by the Jesuits since 1986.
