Seventh Annual David Wright Vegas Night Hits a Million For CHKD

The sold-out evening included a poker tournament and casino games, including craps, roulette, blackjack and virtual horse racing with chances to win great prizes. Guests enjoyed cocktails, heavy hors d'oeuvres, a photo booth, dancing and bidding on live and silent auction items. Nearly 400 supporters attended the event, which raised a record $205,000 for CHKD, with ABS Technology as the title sponsor.

An avid supporter of CHKD for many years, this is the seventh Vegas Night hosted by Wright. This year's event brought the seven-year cumulative total to more than  $1.1 million raised to provide critical support for patient care at CHKD.
