Jewish Federation’s Young Professionals Division is rolling the dice once again to host “Oy Vegas,” a casino night for young Jewish adults to kick off the 2011 Annual Community Campaign. The event takes place from 8 to 11:30 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 29 in the Starlight Room of the Chase Park Plaza Hotel, 212 North Kingshighway.

The cost is $30 in advance and $45 at the door, and includes a premium open bar, desserts, raffle tickets, great prizes, gaming tables, karaoke, a photo booth and many more surprises. The Starlight Room offers a panoramic view of the St. Louis skyline.

All Jewish young adults are invited to come on down to the Starlight Room of the Chase Hotel and try your luck. Event Co-Chairs are Bryan Sanger and Jennifer Growe Soshnik. The Committee includes: Julie Abeles, Danny Babitz, Gretta Deerson, Tracy Gellman, Melissa Firestone, Sara Haluf, Jennifer Hess, Craig Hoovler, Jennifer Luten, Matt Price, Rayna Schaff, Jessica Tilson and Seth Williams.   

“Oy Vegas” is a one-night prelude to TribeFest coming in March, when more than 1,800 Jews ages 22-40 will have a chance to experience Las Vegas from Sunday to Tuesday, March 6-8.
