At the masquerade, delicious foods will be served and DJ dancing courtesy of KVPAC. To celebrate the Arabian Nights theme, a special presentation by professional belly dancing troupe, The Crimson Vagabond Road Show, will be performed. The evening will round out with enjoyable Vegas-style games by Casino Pro, and an array of silent auction items for bidding pleasure that are affordable across the spectrum.
