ACR’s Casino Royale 007 fundraiser set for July 1

By Staff | Jun 2, 2023

The Animal Refuge Center’s 10th Annual Casino Royale 007 fundraiser is set for July 1.

The James Bond themed event will be held from 7 to 11 p.m. at the Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort and Spa in Estero.

“Casino Royale is one of our signature events,” said ARC Board Vice President Rob Spicker in a prepared statement. “Your favorite games of chance like blackjack, poker, roulette and craps will be available to play. We host a live and silent auction and all the proceeds from the night go to support the cats and dogs we take care of.”

Tickets are $75 and include $2,000 in “cash” with which to gamble. Additional gambling “cash” can be purchased at the event.

Of course, no ARC event would be complete without a few wonderful ARC residents in attendance to remind the crowd about the purpose of the night.

This year’s Casino Royale is presented by Paul and Rosalie Watson. Sponsorships are still available. 007 sponsorships are $2,500, License-to-No Kill sponsorships are $1,000, Diamonds are Furever sponsorships are $500, and The Dog Who Loved Me sponsorship is $200. Sponsorships come with event tickets and various levels of advertising.

The Animal Refuge Center in North Fort Myers is Southwest Florida’s largest no-kill shelter.

“Our philosophy avows that once an animal is accepted for adoption, it will not be destroyed to make room for another,” officials said. “Our mission is to shelter, adopt and educate. All donations go directly to our efforts to care for and find homes for as many animals as we can.”

Tickets and sponsorships are available HERE.
