Spring Fling is Saturday, March 20

There are signs of Spring in the air and Hope House is ready. We are gearing up for our event Spring Fling Destination: The Orient!

Mark your calendar today for the place to be from 6:30PM to 10PM on Saturday, March 20, 2010! Enjoy roulette, black jack, Texas Hold 'Em, and craps. NEW SURPRISES are in store like celebrity bingo with KMBC’s news anchor Kris Ketz calling the numbers!  Prizes will be awarded to winners.

There will be a buffet with goodies like vegetarian lo mien, General’s chicken, fried rice, egg rolls and crab Rangoon. The signature drink for the evening is a Singapore Sling!

New this year is a silent auction Treasure Chest…an opportunity for the first 25 bidders at $35 to receive a prize valued at a minimum of $50. There will also be a live auction with awesome items like a unique Sgt. Pepper’s album cover reproduction with laser signatures of the Fab Four; a trip to Monterey, California; and tickets to see the SOLD OUT Taylor Swift concert at the Sprint Center, just to name a few. There are a total of 10 items.

Tickets are easy to get. You can go to our website at www.hopehouse.net  and click on Spring Fling, or contact Libby, our Special Events Manager at 816.257.9334. Tickets are only $50 each and that gets you $200 gaming “cash”, 2 drink tickets and assigned seating. There are other sponsorships available beginning at $500. You can learn more about that on the website or by calling Libby as well.

The event is at the Hilton Garden Inn in Independence, which is exit #17 (Little Blue Parkway) less than a mile off I-70. You can check in at 6:30 and gaming begins at 7:00. The proceeds from the evening’s festivities fund our operations. We are grateful for the support of the community in making this event a success and we look forward to seeing you there.
