With Hurricane Florence expected to hit our coast and move inland later in the week, we have made the decision to cancel this Friday’s Casino Night. Your safety, along with the safety of our vendor partners, is our first priority.
At this time, we do not have plans to reschedule Casino Night. Our fall event calendar, the limited availability of our staff, and venue options limits our immediate ability to reschedule this fun event.
As many of you know, this is one of our two main annual fundraisers to support our financial aid fund. Despite not hosting the event on Friday, we are still determined to use this as an opportunity to fundraise for our financial aid fund. We will be hosting the silent auction online through October 1, and we hope you will take time to check out all of the items (there’s some great trips and experiences!). We will continue to add items this week. You can view and bid on items here: Bidding Owl
We are also asking that you consider donating your ticket purchase to our financial aid fund. Your ticket purchase is 100% tax deductible, and we will issue you a tax receipt for your donation. Your donation would help us this spring as we evaluate another round of financial aid applicants who are experiencing temporary and/or extraordinary financial circumstances and need our assistance. We understand, though, that circumstances might change with the cancellation of the event, and if you would like a refund, we are happy to issue that to you.
As for the NC Courage tickets you received with your Casino Night tickets, please keep your eye on the NC Courage website for information about this weekend’s game.
Thank you for your support, and stay safe this weekend!
