EVENT INFO
Since 2013, Congregation Beth Israel (CBI), Northeast Tarrant County’s only synagogue, has been hosting a casino night on the second Saturday night in January to raise funds to support charitable organizations in our community and some of CBI’s own endeavors.
​
At 6:30 p.m. January 11, 2025, CBI’s Wide World of Sports 11th Annual Casino Night will take live and in-person at the home of our great friends in Good Shepard’s Parish Hall. Please join us and wear your favorite teams’ attire! Our 2025 Casino Night is raising funds for CBI and three deserving charities: Grapevine Relief and Community Exchange (GRACE), Jewish Family Services of Fort Worth & Tarrant County (JFS), and the Jordan Elizabeth Harris Foundation. All of these organizations are improving the lives of individuals and families in our community on a daily basis, and it is an honor to be able to support them.

However, like any casino, we want you to be comfortable and enjoy yourself while you help our deserving beneficiaries. As in previous years, we will have attendees in all forms of attire, from casual to formal wear. Coat check will be available upon your arrival to the Parish Hall.
ARRIVAL & CHECK-IN
At arrival, your tickets and prize chances will be waiting for you at our Will Call welcome desk. Your admission includes heavy hors d’oeuvres from Mac’s On Main, drink tickets, and some gaming chips to get you started. We encourage you to take advantage of special pricing for additional gambling chips when you check-in. You can also sign up for our Wine Pull and Special Raffle for awesome prizes!
SILENT & LIVE AUCTION
Many items will be open for silent auction at tables in the room adjacent to check-in. The online bidding process will allow you to participate in the silent auction between hands of blackjack or other casino games! Supporters who are not able to attend the event in-person will be able to participate in the silent auction. However, alcohol will not be shipped.

We have fantastic items that we will auction off at the end of the night, after a few quick words of thanks. You really cannot miss the opportunity to bid on this tremendous slate of items and make a huge impact for our beneficiaries.
RAFFLE DRAWING
When the gambling hall closes at 9:30 pm, all attendees will convert the chips they have won into raffle tickets. All of our dealers will be available to assist with this process. By placing one or more of your raffle tickets into the raffle jars, you could win some of our fantastic prizes. Please note that you must present your half of the raffle ticket during the raffle pull in order to claim the prize.
