TITUSVILLE, Fla. — Jess Parrish Medical Foundation (JPMF) is pleased to announce the Masquerade at Monte Carlo Benefit Ball on Friday, October 29, 2010, from 7:00 pm to midnight at La Cita Country Club, 777 Country Club Drive, Titusville (see map). The event will be reminiscent of James Bond and Casino Royale with all the glitz and glam of Monte Carlo.
The Masquerade at Monte Carlo Ball is chaired by Dr. Biju and Lisa Mathews, and Jim and Katherine Musick. Everyone is invited to join in this event. Proceeds from this event will create the Cancer Care Boutique, 5th floor, Parrish Medical Center, as well as provide assistance for children and their families at The Children's Center.
Guests attending this year's gala can try their luck at "games of chance" while enjoying fantastic live entertainment, music and a chance to win a 1.5 carat diamond necklace valued at over $3,000 with the purchase of a signature martini. The necklace and martini recipe are sponsored by Jon Miller of Jon's Fine Jewelry in Cocoa Village. Guests will also have the chance to bid on trips to Monte Carlo for the 2011 Grand Prix, Pebble Beach and the Sonoma Valley for a great golf and wine escape, Tuscany for cooking school, a Blue Danube River cruise, France to experience the wines, wonder and fashion, and a luxurious Alaskan cruise. The grand finale includes a reverse raffle offering a chance for someone to win $7,777. The raffle benefits The Children's Center in south Titusville.
