Rotary hosts poker and Bingo evening at Hollywood Casino
GREAT BAY – The Rotary Club of St. Maarten hosts an evening of poker, Bingo and excitement next week Friday at the Hollywood Casino in Pelican Key. “For those that remember the event last year, it was a great time and a new and exciting way to help raise funds for projects supported by the Rotary Club of St. Maarten particularly in the areas of youth literacy, education, after school programs, and health/nourishment,” the club’s president Henna Budhrani says
“Registration for the poker and Bingo tournament begins at 6.30 p.m., along with poker lessons, light snacks and cocktails. A $100 donation gets you $3,000 in poker chips or 5 Bingo cards, along with an Italian buffet dinner from L’Isola during the breaks, and drinks throughout the night. The first place winner in poker will receive a minimum cash prize of $1,500 and the Bingo first place winner will receive a minimum cash prize of $2,000, not to mention many other prizes like hotel stays, airline tickets and excursions,” Budhrani says
“This Texas Hold ‘Em and Bingo night is such a different fund raiser than the usual gala dinner,” says Rotarian John Caputo, organizer of the tournament. “You have the opportunity to win cash and other great prizes all for a good cause. Everyone who came last year raved that it was a fantastic time. We are really looking forward to hosting it again this year and thank Hollywood Casino and all the businesses that helped by sponsoring prizes to help ensure everyone leaves a winner.”
