SF New Tech’s Casino Royale Holiday Bash! 12/14 6:30p @Sandbox Suites

Casino Royale

On Wednesday, December 14th you’re invited to join us to celebrate the holidays in high style as we take over Sandbox Suites of South Park for a very special Casino Royale Holiday Bash!

Get ready for an enchanting evening of blackjack, roulette and craps with real tables, real chips, and real dealers! What’s best, you’ll be in the company of all your favorite SF New Tech friends.

To give back — we won’t be playing for cash, we’ll be gaming for good with a percentage of all ticket sales to be donated to worthy causes through GlobalGiving.com. Last year we helped orphans in Haiti build a new school, among other causes. (Photos)


Lots of cool prizes and surprises await!



Our Casino Royale holiday party this year is sponsored by Mediastay and OPOWER.

With big thanks to Sandbox Suites, btrax, GraffittiPR, CALinnovates, and Mylermedia.
