CASA of Johnson & Wyandotte Counties – Hops & Barley Ball

Disco duds and mirror balls were just part of the fun at Hops & Barley Ball: A Night of Disco 70s Style, a benefit for CASA of Johnson & Wyandotte Counties. The September 22nd event was held at Pennway Place at Studio Dan Meiners. Partygoers enjoyed entertainment by Boogie Wonderland, cocktails, dining stations, and a silent auction. Proceeds will be used to train and support CASA volunteers to advocate for abused/neglected children under court protection in Johnson and Wyandotte Counties.
