The Humane Society of Southwestern Michigan is hoping people will come out to gamble their tails off this Saturday for the first ever Bets for Pets Casino Night. Humane Society Director Jill Svoboda tells WSJM News the event will take place from 6 to 10 p.m. at the Hilton Garden Inn in Benton Harbor.

“We are going to bring Vegas to Berrien County for one night only,” Svoboda said. “We are going to be featuring professionally-presented Vegas-style games. We have a company coming in so everything’s professional. It’s going to be a lot of fun.”

Svoboda says the tickets are $85.

“We’re giving you $100 worth of start up poker chips, heavy hor dourves, a beer and wine bar is included, an oxygen bar in included, an oxygen bar is included with live music and a photo booth.”

There will also be an auction. All proceeds will go to the Humane Society of Southwestern Michigan’s capital campaign to pay off the new building. Svoboda says they owe about $149,000 on it. Items up for grabs in the auction at Bets for Pets include plane rides and golf outings. You can get tickets in advance and some will be available at the door.
