"Beat The Odds" Casino Night

Beat The Odds with Community Support Services (CSS) on Friday, April 13, 2012, at  Bella Banquets, 5412 LaGrange Road, Countryside, IL., 6pm-10pm. Festivities will include Roulette, Poker, Black Jack, BINGO, Cash Cube, live entertainment, live and silent auction, food and
open bar. All proceeds will go towards the funding of
services provided by Community Support Services, a not-for-profit community agency serving over 600 children and adults with developmental disabilities.

“With help from Community Support Services, my sister is living a life far beyond our family's expectations’, says Sue Wolfe, ‘She lives independently, engages in community
events, is a wonderful neighbor.  She beats the odds, for in the early 1960's, it was more likely that she be dependent on family or live in an institution than have the interdependent relationships she enjoys today.”


Master of Ceremonies, Radio Hall of
Fame inductee, Orion Samuelson, will kick off the night. Auction items include an exclusive behind the scenes personal tour of Brookfield Zoo for winner and
five friends (lunch provided), vacation trips to historical and scenic locations, jewelry, gift certificates to DuPage and Cook counties finest restaurants, family fun packages, and more. Tickets can be purchased for $95 in
advance at www.communitysupportservices.org, or $125 at the door. For more information, please contact,
