    Students anticipate the dealer’s next move of the cards during an intense game of Black Jack.

    Members of several Oak Creek Campus and West Allis Campus groups banded together to put on Casino Night. Themed for St. Patty’s day, the over 100 in attendance enjoyed taking their chances with their “funny money” at many of the traditional games such as Craps and Black Jack. Each competed for more chances to win their desired prize(s).

    The musical entertainment for the evening was donated by a group called Flashback.

    They were also treated to some fine chili.

    The Culinary Arts Department held a chili cook off. First place winner was Jessica Mutz, with second place going to Chris Hintz. They reached their $200 goal, and the proceeds were donated to local food pantries.

    The chefs would like to thank all who came to support the event.
