College to host casino night fundraiser

Middlesex County College (MCC) will offer a night of make-believe gambling Oct. 18 at the Rosewood, 2863 Woodbridge Ave., Edison. Doors open at 5:30 p.m., and the games begin at 6 p.m.

“This event will be a lot of fun,” said Veronica Clinton, director of development and alumni relations at the college and executive director of the MCC Foundation.

“In an exciting casino atmosphere, attendees will get $50 in fake chips that they can use to ‘gamble’ to win tickets to put in the tricky trays for terrific prizes and prize packages. Besides offering a wonderful time, this fundraising event will help the college continue its mission to support deserving students through greatly needed scholarships.”

The admission fee of $75 includes $50 in fake chips and a buffet with desserts, as well as one drink per person. A cash bar will also be available.

Participants must be 21 years of age. The event requires business attire.
