However, the overall fastest time was turned by Nick Ransegnola in 23 mins. 30 secs. Second was Lauren Kulick in 24 Mins 24 secs. and Third  was Marjorie Stern in 25 mins 6 secs.  

The Race started and end at the American Legion Post 423 building at 28 Legion Road, Milton, NJ, (off of Berkshire Valley Road). The course is a USATF Certified Course No. NJ10517JHP.

The biggest winner of the day is the Department for Persons with Disabilities (DPD) in Oak Ridge as the profits will be given to them to assist them in their great work. We also want to thank “LOX Stocked & Bageled”  for donating the delicious bagels for our contestants and your continued support. Also thank you to all the Brother Knights who came in to run the event.

Ca$ino Nite – April 2013

Well, Casino Nite was a big success. St. Thomas the Apostle’s all purpose room was transfigured into a restaurant lounge with casino! The food provided by Portofino’s Restaurant was excellent and enjoyed by all in a relaxing atmosphere with some pleasant jazz music accompanying their dinner.

A cozy atmosphere for winners and well others having fun!

The modest price of $50 was well worth it.  Included with dinner were beverages (beer, wine, water or soda) and dessert, a variety of several cakes that would satisfy any palate.

St. Thomas’s back hall room literally turned into a Casino with tables and dealers for  blackjack a craps, roulette, stud poker and Texas hold ’em.  After all the gaming, great prizes were raffled off. A portion of the profits will be            used for our Annual Scholarship Fund. A great cause and a NITE for all!
