Brookdale Maplewood Senior Living Solutions will host the 14th Annual Las Vegas Night at their facility on Friday, April 27 beginning at 5:30 p.m.  The event is held annually as the cornerstone fundraiser for Health Access, which provides primary healthcare and prescription medications to low income uninsured and underinsured patients in the community.
 
The evening will begin with a gourmet buffet during which live entertainment will be performed.   All ticket holders will receive $500 in “gaming money” with which to play various Las Vegas styled games that will be set up in a “Vegas Room”. Two free drinks are also included with ticket price.
 
There will be an extraordinary Silent Auction featuring a wonderful assortment of themed baskets and items donated or sponsored by local area businesses and individuals. 
 
Attendees will move from the main dining room into the Vegas Room and then circulate thru the Silent Auction areas throughout the evening from 7 p.m. till the Silent Auction is closed and the winners will be announced prior to the end of the evening. 
 
The gaming tables are again being provided by Elite Casino Events from Weirton WV and this company provides an amazing experience that is both entertaining and educational for everyone.
 
“The attendance at the Las Vegas Night event at Maplewood is typically between 150 and 200 people and everyone that comes realizes that this is a charity fund raising event to secure needed funding for the clinic,” said Jim Harris, Executive Director of Health Access.  “They come with their checkbooks and they are not afraid to open them and be generous in their bids on the great selection of Silent Auction items we always have available.” 
 
Those that call Maplewood their home have been very supportive of this event in the past as they are engaged in many activities of support within the larger community of the Bridgeport/Clarksburg area.
 
The title sponsor for this year’s event is BB&T Bank and tickets for the evening are $30 each and can be obtained by calling Health Access, Inc. at 304-622-2708 or stopping Maplewood in Bridgeport. Health Access, Inc. is proud to receive financial support from the United Way of Harrison County Inc.
