Casino Night
The JWC will be providing a Casino Night for the Association of Builders & Contractors. The Casino Night will be at Toftrees on Friday, June 25, 2010 from 6:30pm to 9:30pm. Please make sure you keep this night free.
Funds are raised to satisfy the budget of the Club and for monetary contributions to community organizations. One organization is selected during a general meeting vote. That organization receives proceeds from the JWC for the next 2 years.
The group's main fundraiser is Elves Gift Shop, held the first Saturday in December. EGS is approximately 30 years old. Children can shop for inexpensive items for their families, teachers, friends, and pets with the help of "elves" (local Girl Scouts). This also includes a holiday bazaar in the cafeteria.
Another fundraising event is our Casino Night. Our Casino Nights are provided to local organizations for a fee with proceeds benefiting local charities. JWC provides an evening of casino style games using play money. JWC can provide the gaming equipment and dealers, if requested. If you would like more information concerning our Casino Nights, please contact: Jen Fleury at casinochair@jwcsc.com.
