Recently the Tracy Council of Realtors in conjunction with the Central Valley Association of Realtors held a “Casino Night” fund raiser. One of the primary functions of our council is to raise money to distribute to local charities. The Casino Night event was the second of three events we will hopd this year in those efforts.
To make an event like this successful a lot of people and organizations must pitch in to make it work. The space we used was donated, the 22 raffle prizes were donated, and the food we served was donated. Some of the alcohol we served was donated and the balance sold to us at a deep discount. The labor was volunteer. The DJ service was volunteer. There was much that I should mention but simply to much to remember it all.
The result was a tremendously fun event, that raised a substantial amout of money. ALL of the money raised will be donated to charity.
My thanks to all of those who volunteered, donated, discounted and attended. Thanks to your support, more children will be warm and better fed throughout the remainder of this year and forward into 2014. It is hard or impossible for me to imagine living in a community with people amd organizations more generous and caring than those in and around Tracy California.
The picture is my 17 year old son and myself. He donated his time and worked hard setting up the event, keeping trash picked up durning the event and tearing down at the conclussion. It was great to have him around for a few extra hours.
