Eileen Wilson, an Alpharetta resident, mother of three and a licensed real estate agent, lives life to the fullest tackling personal and professional challenges with gusto and zest. This spring, the Crooked Creek resident will tackle a new challenge -- her first full-marathon -- as she runs 26 miles in the ‘Rock ‘n Roll Marathon’ in Nashville, TN to honor a young mother of two who is engaging in a different kind of race… leukemia.

“As the mother of three young boys myself, it really touched me learning about this young, vibrant mother who is truly in the fight of her life,” the 34-year old Wilson says. “If she can battle leukemia while raising her children to live and love life, then I can certainly work to raise money for her fight and run a 26-mile marathon!”

The Gentleman’s Casino Charity Night will be held at 7 p.m. on Thursday, March 9, 2006 at the Crooked Creek Golf & Country Club in Alpharetta, GA. All ticket sales and sponsorships are tax-deductible. Tickets are $100/each, which includes $500 in gaming chips, heavy hors d’ouvres and (1) drink ticket with a cash bar. Gentlemen also will have the opportunity to win great prizes and bid on incredible luxury items during the live auction. A grand prize will be awarded to the man who accumulates the most winnings for the evening.

“This event will be an amazing night to remember,” Wilson explains. “For this one special night, the Crooked Creek Golf Club will be transformed into a Casino complete with a full complement of craps, roulette and blackjack and poker tables. While we will have an opportunity for gentlemen to bid on luxury items and exotic lodging packages during a live auction, one grand prize will be awarded to the lucky man who ends the night with the most chips.”
