Share via

A gala evening event in support of the 52-year-old Community Scholarship Foundation of La Cañada Flintridge is planned for Saturday, Aug. 27 at the beautiful hillside estate of Sandy and Mike Kobeissi.

Games of poker, bunco, blackjack and craps will be offered during the formal event, themed “Monte Carlo Under the Stars.” An exotic car show will add to the atmosphere and food and cocktails will be served, according to co-chairs Sandy Kobeissi and Analily Park. They and their organizing committee recommend reserving a spot at the poker and bunco games soon, as space is limited.

The party, which is for adults age 21 and up, gets underway at 6 p.m., with poker and bunco starting at 7 p.m. General admission is $75. The cost to play poker is $100 and a seat at a bunco table is priced at $75. Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased online at csfmontecarlo.afrogs.org, or at Kobeissi Properties, 711 Foothill Blvd., between the hours of 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. on weekdays.

Since its founding in 1964, the Community Scholarship Foundation has given approximately $1 million in scholarships to more than 800 students. The organization’s mission is to help every student of merit reach for their dreams of higher education, regardless of financial means.
