CASINO NIGHT BENEFITS MOMMY’S LIGHT LIVES ON FUND®

Ursinus Business Management Students Host Event as Course Project

Collegeville, PA – March 27, 2007 – Incredible glamour, amazing intrigue, and a worthy cause are in the cards for Monte Carlo Casino Night, benefiting Mommy’s Light Lives On Fund®.

Monte Carlo Casino Night is Saturday, April 14, 2007 from 7:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. at Limerick Golf Club in Limerick, PA.  Tickets, which include dinner and $25 worth of starter gambling chips, are limited to 200 guests and are available for $40 each, $75 per couple or $375 per group of 10 by contacting the Ursinus Illuminators at 570-204-0925 or visiting www.mommyslight.org.

The event will be hosted by the Ursinus College Illuminators, a team of students committed to raising funds for Mommy’s Light as part of a Business Management course.  This unique hands-on experience will allow them to run an organization while exploring and experiencing the choices, decisions and challenges faced by operational managers.  Committee members are Heather Turnbach, Jason Entezari, Dane Mangin, Christina Manton and Ashley Willcox.

All proceeds will be donated to Mommy’s Light, a Delaware-Valley based nonprofit organization that brings joy and comfort to children and teens, whose mothers have died or are terminally ill, by helping them keep alive traditions and simple pleasures they shared. The non-profit organization relies on corporate and individual sponsorship to sustain services and cultivate growth. (www.mommyslight.org)

Guests should dress for a night on the Riviera, ready for high-stakes Monte Carlo action on real gaming tables with chips exchangeable for prizes at the end of the evening. Games include Blackjack, Texas Hold’em Poker, Roulette, Craps and more.  And beware…that beautiful dame or suave gentleman in the next chair just may be a double agent!

The event will be held in the Loft, a beautifully refurnished antique barn overlooking the Limerick Golf Club.  Guests will enjoy a delicious catered dinner provided by Carrabba’s Italian Restaurant.  Vodka martinis are the drink of the evening, but a full cash bar also will be available.  In addition to playing their favorite games, guests are encouraged to participate in several raffles.

For tickets, more information or to make a donation, please call Heather Turnbach at 570-204-0925.
