West Orange, NJ, September 09, 2011 --(PR.com)-- The North Essex Chamber of Commerce (NECC or Chamber) will host its third annual Casino Night on Thursday, October 27, 2011, from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. This year’s theme is “NYC Lights.”

They encourage guests to come in black and white attire for this year’s event, which offers an entertaining variety of games, live music, great food, and prizes.
“After the success of our previous casino nights, we’re looking to make this year’s event even better,” says Anthony M. Rainone, Esq., President of the NECC. “We will be combining our efforts with Susan G.

Rhonda Rivera, Chair of the NYC Lights event, adds: “We’re very excited about this year’s Casino Night. The irresistible combination of the thrill of gaming with the fun of a black and white theme, all at the prestigious Highlawn Pavilion, will make this year’s event the best yet!”

About Susan G. Komen For the Cure®
The North Jersey Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, located in Summit, NJ, was founded in 1997 on a promise “to make a difference” to a 10-year-old girl who lost her mother to breast cancer.
