Guests can experience the fun and excitement of playing in a real casino while enjoying culinary delights from our own One Step Beyond catering team. This event will feature game tables much like the ones you would find in a real casino, as well as professional dealers to run the games but instead of going to Las Vegas, Las Vegas comes to you! The key difference between play at a Casino Fundraiser and “the real thing” is that no actual gambling takes place. The games are played with chips with no cash value for entertainment only.
