Essex Chamber of Commerce's Casino Night Celebrates NJ Boardwalks

The North Essex Chamber of Commerce's fifth annual Casino Night will celebrate New Jersey's boardwalks with the them, “Back to the Boardwalk."

The event will be held at the Upper Montclair Women’s Club, 200 Cooper Ave., Montclair, on Friday, Oct. 11, from 6 to 10 p.m. Tickets are $65 until Sept. 30, $70 starting Oct. 1, and $75 on the day of the event. 

Included in the price is $200 worth of “play” money for the casino games, “boardwalk” food, wine and beer, music by Two Fifths Crazy and a goody bag filled with trinkets and promotional items from sponsors.

“Celebrating our boardwalks at this year’s Casino Night," said NECC President Roger Ochoa of Chyten Tutors in Montclair, “reminds us of how much we have to be proud of in New Jersey, especially after Hurricane Sandy last year. Casino Night has always been a great way for businesses to network in a social setting. For everyone, it’s just a lot of fun.”

A portion of the proceeds from this event will benefit the NECC college scholarship program. Several $1,500 scholarship are awarded each year to chamber members and to chamber employees and their dependents. Most post-secondary educational programs are eligible. The deadline for application is the end of May 2014.

The NECC is the official chamber for nine northern Essex County towns: Caldwell, Cedar Grove, Essex Fells, Fairfield, Montclair, North Caldwell, Roseland, Verona and West Caldwell.
