Students don’t need to know when to hold ’em or fold ’em to attend the Student Activities Board’s Casino Night on Friday from 8-10 p.m. in the Formal Lounge.

Students should wear formal attire and will be able to win raffle prizes. According to creative team member and junior Phoebe Vanheyningen, SAB is providing multiple games.

“We have roulette, blackjack, Texas hold ’em, and poker,” Vanheyningen said. “We’ll also have a few decks of cards out for people waiting for a specific game.”

SAB is looking for a classic casino feel, according to Vanheyningen.

“We are hosting it in the formal lounge to help with the more refined vibe that we’re going for,” she said.

Vanheyningen said the event will also feature authentic poker equipment.

“We’ve rented actual poker tables and supplies so it will feel more like the real thing as well,” she said.

Vanheyningen said students should come out to enjoy the experience.

“This is a one-of-a-kind event,” she said.

According to junior John Schaefer, SAB’s promo lead, the 2021 President’s Ball featured a casino.

“It was super successful and we thought it would be fun to do the same thing as a stand alone event,” Schaefer said.

He said he hopes students will come learn new card games and win raffle prizes.

“It’s an opportunity to gamble with nothing on the line, so come learn a game if you don’t know it, and come enjoy if you do,” Vanheyningen said.
