Young Professionals of Naples to host “007 Casino Night 008” Aiding Ricky King Fund


Naples , FL (October 15, 2008) – The Young Professionals of Naples (YP) is preparing to unveil its inaugural “007 Casino Night” on Sunday, December 007, 2008, at Club Ultra , US 41, in North Naples . The event will benefit the Ricky King Fund an organization that enriches lives of children with disabilities in SW Florida by providing essential medical equipment and services in times of need. The event will begin at 6:45 p.m., with on site “pre-casino tutorials” and the actual stakes gaming starting at around 7:30 p.m. In addition to the hands on gaming demos the event will feature Blackjack, Poker, Roulette, and Craps with chip cash ins exchanged for drawing tickets at chances for donated prize packages.

“It’s the sleek swanky ambiance that will create the focal point of this event,” states Amber Shemansky , Chairman of Philanthropy for YP of Naples.

Ultra Lounge, already known for its sophisticated Naples night scene, will provide a surrounding that will showcase a Jaguar along side a Masarati, a Ducati motorcycle, eye catching ice sculpture beverage luge, mouthwatering appetizers, hand rolled cigar purchases, beverage tasting, red carpet entrance, and DJ 007 providing a custom soundtrack tailored for this scene.
A donation of $40 per person provides admission and includes a beverage coupon, appetizers, and $5,000 in gaming chips. Black, White and Red Cocktail attire is required with formal attire “begging to be worn.”
“This is an event you do not just attend, this is an event you LIVE!” coming from Craig Bamberg , Vice Chairman for Philanthropy for YP of Naples. “For all purposes we will transform Ultra into a movie set to rival any 007 Bond Movie.” Bamberg finished.
