Mr. and Mrs. Cannon: a Day in the Life: 31st Annual FIJI Casino Night

One of the things I look forward to each year is FIJI Casino Night! Eric's fraternity, Phi Gamma Delta (aka: FIJI), hosts this event every year to raise money for a charitable organization. We get to dress up and attend this event, which is set up like a real casino with tables, dealers, live music, raffle prizes, multiple bars, and even show girls. Active members of FIJI, as well as alumni from countless different pledge classes, come together for this event each year. It's the perfect time to reconnect with friends that have been out of touch. It's not limited to just FIJI's and their dates, however; anyone who purchases a ticket is allowed to attend. I invited my brother and his girlfriend, Elizabeth, who will be attending TCU in the fall... they had SO much fun!

In 2010, FIJI Casino Night raised over $14,000 for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, an organization chosen because of a young TCU FIJI alum that has been diagnosed with MS.

This year the fraternity chose to donate to The United Services Organization (aka: USO). This organization is dedicated to helping men and women of the United States military and their families. What a fantastic cause!

Here are some pictures of Eric and I at FIJI Casino Night over the years... and then some pictures from this year's FIJI Casino Night!
