A Night at the Races Fundraiser

Please join the Penn State Alumni Association and Centre County Chapter for A Night at the Races!

The event will take place Friday, May 17, 2019, at the Knights of Columbus in State College, Pa. Doors open at 6:00 p.m. Races start at 7:00 p.m. The event benefits the Lion Ambassador and Blue and White Society dancers at THON as well as the Centre County Chapter scholarship fund.

Throughout the evening, ten horse races will be shown via video.  These are actual horse races that have been

recorded and narrated from start to finish; however, no one knows the outcome of the races prior to viewing them at the event.  With the purchase of each event ticket, you will receive a “horse”, which you will name.  Each horse will run in one of the 10 races that evening.  If your horse wins that race, you will win $50. The night of the event, attendees have the opportunity to place additional “bets”.

Ticket includes:

Beef & Turkey dinner buffet

Nonalcoholic beverages

1 Free alcoholic beverage

1 Horse

Additional “horse only” tickets may be purchased for $10 each.  These tickets can be purchased to increase your chances to win or if you are unable to attend, you can purchase a “horse only” ticket and take part in the excitement from afar and still support a great cause!  You do not need to be present to win.

Must be 21 to attend.

Please contact Shelley Houck at sjh25@psu.edu or Mara Ryan at 814-867-4649 by May 10th for more information or to purchase tickets.
