Dr. WRIPAC 

Dr. WRIPAC is a professional networking event that gives our members and guests an opportunity to socialize and get to know one another outside of the meeting. 

For Dr. WRIPAC in Las Vegas, we will start with a self-guided tour of the Mob Museum. The Mob Museum, The National Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement, is a 501(c) 3 nonprofit dedicated to the history of organized crime and law enforcement. 

The Mob Museum provides a world-class, interactive journey through true stories. From the birth of the Mob, to today’s headlines. Shadows and whispers. G-Men and Made Men. Whether you like it or not, this is American history. This eye-opening, authentic view of organized crime’s impact on the world reveals an insider’s look at the events and characters of the continuing battle between the Mob and the law.
Real stories are brought to life with engaging, multi-sensory exhibits and unparalleled insights from those on the front lines of both sides of the battle. The Mob Museum offers a provocative, contemporary look at this fascinating topic through hundreds of artifacts and immersive storylines. We bring Mob stories to life so completely, you’ll feel like you’re part of them. But hey—you didn’t hear it from us.

After visiting the Mob Museum, we'll venture off to the Commonwealth club, where if we're lucky we'll gain access to the secreative back-room speakeasy, the Laundry room where your first cocktail is on us! The Laundry Room is the semi-secret backroom speakeasy bar located at Commonwealth Bar & Club in downtown “Old Vegas” on Fremont Street East. The Laundry Room speakeasy bar is accessible via a hidden door only by those with reservations! Don’t bother trying to order beer or wine, they don’t have any. The menu features a fantastic cocktail variety, but if you really want to have fun, tell bartender/proprietor what you enjoy and let them come up with just the right thing.
