The Tulare County Farm Bureau Young Farmers and Ranchers (YF&R) Committee will hold their 24th annual Casino Night fundraiser on Nov. 4, beginning at 6 p.m. at the Internatio­nal Agri-center Heritage Complex. Casino Night is the sole fundraiser of the Young Farmers and Ranchers committee.

Proceeds will fund YF&R projects in Tulare County such as youth scholarshi­ps, the Annual Grocery Cart race to benefit Tulare County Foodlink and profession­al developmen­t opportunit­ies for YF&R members. Casino Night is a fun filled evening that features casino gaming tables, a barbecue dinner, and a silent auction. The event also includes a gun raffle, hosted bar of wine and beer, and live entertainm­ent from Branded Heart.

“This event helps raise funds used to support and promote the local agricultur­al community. The funds raised from Casino Night enable us to contribute to local organizati­ons and outreach efforts throughout the year,” said Brian Gill, Casino Night Co-chair. “We hope that you will join us!”

Casino Night also raises funds to send YF&R members to the annual California State Young Farmers and Ranchers Conference, held this year in Reno, Nev., Feb. 16-19, 2018. The conference is held in conjunctio­n with American Farm Bureau’s YF&R Conference.

Casino Night tickets are available at a pre-sale price of $35 per person and may be purchased through any YF&R member or by contacting the Tulare County Farm Bureau office at 732-8301. Tickets will also be available at the door for $40.
