Anyone who purchased a ticket for the Annual Raffle & Casino Night had a chance to win a $5,000 cash prize in the Reverse Raffle that kicked off the evening. The nearly 200 guests in attendance were offered the opportunity to be part of the best dressed “flapper” and “dapper” contest to be awarded $500 each. Following the Reverse Raffle, attendees played casino games including blackjack, craps, poker, and roulette for their chance to win great prizes including a beach vacation, jewelry, a gym membership, and massage package.
