The MBA Association cordially invites you to its keystone
event, Monte Carlo Night 2011 – a night of gambling, dancing,
friends, and fun! The night will include an open bar, DJ,
and light food. This annual, black-tie optional event is
a valued Smith tradition established in 2002 to raise money
for the Michael Scott Lamana and Eric Cranford Memorial
MBA Fellowship Fund. Mr. Lamana and Mr. Cranford were Part-Time
Smith MBA students killed in the 2001 terrorist attacks
on the Pentagon. Part of the proceeds from the night’s event
will go toward this fund.

What could be better than spending a few hours with
friends while enjoying wine? How about private wine
class on how to order proper wines for dinner while you
enjoy select wines and cheeses? The next time you’re out
with clients or your boss, you’ll be able to order wine
with confidence! Tickets are $50 and include six wines,
cheeses, taxes and gratuity. There will be a drawing for
a Smith School wine carrier and bottle stopper during
the evening!
