Casino night is packed with food, laughter, free gambling and lots of fun! This will be the eighth  year that students and faculty have gathered together in the Bolick Center at PVCC dressed in costumes to enjoy a safe, fun-filled night. The night will start at 7 p.m. and wrap up at 11 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 28.

Fake gambling money will be handed out to anyone interested in participating in Blackjack, Craps, Hold’em Poker or Roulette. Tables will be set up in the Bolick center for these games.

Extra playing tickets will be awarded to anyone who shows up wearing a fun costume or  PVCC ID. Students can obtain free ID’s at the public safety office located down the main hallway in the main building.

The winner of the best costume contest will receive an extra $10,000 in fake money for gambling! There will also be a raffle at the end of the night where each participant will have the chance to win iPads, other electronics, or gift cards.

The biggest difference from previous years is the raffling process. “ I want people to have an easier time getting their raffles,” said Olivia Stevens, director of events for the SGA. Stevens is working to create the raffle into a more efficient process, making it easier for winners to receive their prizes.

“Casino night is a great opportunity for PVCC students to get together and participate in fun activities sponsored by the SGA. [We are] working hard to make the event an enjoyable and memorable one. PVCC campus will be beaming with fun games, music, and activities in the Bolick center. PVCC students, don’t forget to dress up, show your ID, and get the chance to win an iPad mini and other amazing prizes!” said Wadah Al Mulhim, president of the SGA.
