Casino Night Gala Event

Purchase Tickets: Friday, March 28 at 7:30 pm {7:00 pm VIP Guests}

Join us for our annual black-tie optional event, Casino Night, featuring open bar, casino games, silent and live auction and heavy hors d’oeuvres. VIP tickets include an early reception and swag back {limited one per couple; limited number available}. Register early for your VIP ticket and have your name included in the official Casino Night program.

Also, gigantic shout-out to the phenomenal Gala Committee for all their hard work thus far this year. You won’t believe the fantastic silent and live auction items they have in store for this year’s Casino Night. Stay tuned as we roll-out a post next week on what you can expect to bid on at Casino Night. And by “bid on” we really mean “items for which you will obsessively hover over and potentially push and shove your way to win.” However, we do not condone violence and are in no way responsible for any pushing, shoving or screaming that may take place during the bidding process. After-all, we are a group of refined and sophisticated ladies.

VIP guests should arrive at 7 pm. General admission begins at 7:30 pm.
