Wisconsin Solo-ettes, a Barbie® Doll Club, with support from the National Collectors Convention Steering Committee (NCCSC), is thrilled to welcome you to Mystery on DREAMHOUSE™ Drive, the 2024 National Barbie® Doll Collectors Convention (NBDCC). We are taking you back 60 years to beautiful Palm Springs 1964! The city’s Mid-Century Modern (MCM) home architecture creates a beautiful backdrop for the era’s picture-perfect fashion silhouettes that will become classics.

 

Our story will begin with Barbie® doll, who is busy planning the activities for the Open House of her personally designed MCM home on DREAMHOUSE™ Drive.

 

“It’s a mystery!” Barbie® doll exclaims, “My blueprints are missing!”

 

The clock is ticking…can you help Barbie® doll solve the mystery before the Open House? Put your Detective hat on and have fun exploring Barbie® doll’s 12 ROOMS of the DREAMHOUSE™, help decorate the interiors with 10 FURNISHINGS, and determine which of our 12 SUSPECTS suspiciously misplaced the missing blueprints. As an attendee, you can accomplish this by viewing visual clues throughout the Hotel venue. Once located, you will check them off on your Detective Checklist. To get you started, your first two clues will be revealed right here on this website!

 

Can you find all the clues and solve the Mystery on DREAMHOUSE™ Drive?

 

Which SUSPECT suspiciously misplaced the blueprints? 

In which ROOM? 

And behind which home FURNISHING?

 

Did you, or one of your table guests pick the right three?

One Grand Detective prize will be awarded at EACH TABLE on Friday evening!

 

I can’t wait to see you in Palm Desert and hope you have fun solving the mystery!
