 Close to 100 Stateline Chamber members and their guests enjoyed a full course dinner followed by an evening of gambling and networking, Friday, Nov. 4, during the sixth annual “Casino Night” held at Forest Ridge Event Center, 11189 Forest Hills Road, Machesney Park.

Guests could try their hand at Texas Holdem, Black Jack, Craps, Roulette and Poker. Bets were established with play money. At the end of their game, winners turned in their “money” for tickets to win a variety of prize baskets donated by Chamber businesses. 

Entertainment Committee Chairman Kristie Lambright organized the event, and put her expertise to work creating an authentic –looking gambling casino.  The grand prize of the evening was an engraved wooden poker set donated by Ace Foster of “Embroid This.”
