LACASA Center’s Denim & Diamonds fall fundraiser is set for 5:30-10 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 18, at Haggerty-Bearden Ranch in Howell.
At this jeans-preferred event expect a fun-filled evening with entertainment, dancing, Wild West gambling, and a variety of western-themed activities, followed by a grand finale fireworks display.
Throughout the evening guests can purchase tickets to mine for a $6,000 diamond and other gems at the Cooper & Binkley Diamond Mine raffle, and also try their luck at casino games for the chance to win great prizes.
Delicious barbecue from Block Brewing, wine and beer, a Lady Luck Raffle, and live country-themed music by Whiskey Fixx are expected at this year’s high-energy event.
Event tickets are $100 per person, and can be purchased at Cooper & Binkley Jewelers in Brighton, at Howell Western Wear and the LACASA Collection, both located in Howell. Tickets also are available online at lacasacenter.org.
Diamond Mine raffle tickets are $100. Only 100 tickets for this raffle will be offered. Every ticket holder will come away with a cubic zirconia, a gemstone, or the real diamond. Tickets can be purchased from now through noon on Friday, Sept. 17, at Cooper & Binkley Jewelers, Howell Western Wear and the LACASA Collection. Although mining for the real diamond at Denim & Diamonds is half the fun, ticket holders need not be present to win. Winner will be announced at the end of the night on Sept. 18, 2021.
All proceeds from Denim & Diamonds and the Diamond Mine raffle stay local and benefit victims of child abuse and interpersonal violence from the community.
