Casino Night 2012: Evening of Fun and Games for a Good Cause

Saturday night, April 21^st, Parent Talk members and their friends came together for a night of fun, games, and to contribute to Needham Greene’s Field renovation. This year, the event was held at the brand new and beautiful Needham Golf Clubhouse. The room was larger than usual, with a balcony off the side, and we were lucky enough to have balmy weather despite the forecast. Several guests were seen enjoying the evening breeze between games at the Roulette table or Black Jack.

Many groups got together for dinner or even a playgroup parent party before heading over to the clubhouse. Tables were busy and the crowd was clearly having fun. From the number of chips cashed in for raffle tickets, there were some pretty big winners, as well. But none more than the Greene’s Field renovation project to which the proceeds from the evening are to be contributed. Watch this space in the coming months to learn more about the progress of that project and further Parent Talk efforts to raise funds for this popular park.

At the end of the evening of fun and games, lucky winners came away with tickets to the Red Sox, a week at a LINX summer camp, and a spring family photo shoot in the Boston Public Gardens. But those were just a few of over 20 prizes people walked away with at the end of the evening.

Thanks to all the wonderful volunteers who made the night such a success; Katie Alwart, Ginger Bunn, Tricia Burch, Sarah Dussault, Ann Lyons, Ryan McDonnell, Sue Pouliot, Mary Richman, and no one more than Kate and Wilson Owens!
