English term or phrase: Spring Fling down at the American Legion
Hi, I am now translating a contemporary american play and am stuck with one phrase. There is this one girl in the play, who comes to the viewing of the funeral with a red dress on. And a man shouts like this....

It's a viewing, sweetheart, not the Spring Fling down at the American Legion!

How would you translate this sentence?
