Every year Raven Valdes, the Valley’s Party Priestess and owner of Raven Events, LLC, produces, promotes, and hosts one of her biggest charity events of the year to celebrate not just her birthday, but the birthdays of many guests who all share the same special day. She’ll be putting the party on in grand style, Luau-style, that is. The entire Clarion Hotel Scottsdale property - hotel rooms, two bars/restaurants, lounges, pool, and courtyard areas - will be devoted to this special event! The guests are asked to add to the tropical theme by arriving in Hawaiian shirts, sundresses, shorts, or even swimwear, and join Raven and friends for non-stop indoor/outdoor summer fun. Raven invites you to enjoy the fabulous amenities and the exciting entertainment of this indoor/outdoor nighttime Hawaiian-inspired event while benefiting a wonderful organization called the Community Dental Foundation. Although this event is open to the public and everyone is welcome, only 500 guests can be accommodated.\n\nTHE CHARITY\n\nCommunity Dental Foundation is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the oral health of children and individuals with no dental insurance and low incomes by providing accessible treatment and education to their community. The Community Dental Foundation eliminates two barriers to dental treatment; access and financial resources. To those in need, the foundation provides transportation to the dental providers. Children who receive treatment either have no insurance or their families are financially unable to meet the growing costs of dental care services. To learn more, visit www.cdental.org or DONATE ONLINE TODAY!\n\n\nTHE OUTDOOR FESTIVITIES\n\nThe outdoor portion of this party will have a vacation feel to it the minute you walk into the palm tree-lined pool area that is surrounded by comfortable hotel rooms, cocktail bars, and cozy cabanas. Live Island-style music and entertainment will add to the tropical atmosphere.\n\nWalt Richardson and Friends will top the entertainment lineup and will be performing poolside from 8 p.m. – 11 p.m. Walt has been widely revered as the godfather of the Valley’s reggae scene, and his musical interests also include touches of folk and pop intertwined with various world rhythms. He is quite capable of creating the laid-back, but upbeat vibe for the outdoor portion of this celebration.\n\nKilali’s Polynesian Revue will be presenting visual beauty and talented performers during the band breaks. Guests will be treated to authentic Tahitian Dancers in colorful costumes, Hula Dancers, and an exciting Fire/knife Dance performance!\n \nFor thirsty partygoers, there will be ample Poolside Libations - 3 cocktail bars. One Full Cocktail Bar will offer great specials such as $4 Domestic Beers, $5 Well drinks, $5 House wines, $5 SKYY Vodka Martinis, and $3 Jagermeister Shots. For wine lovers, an exclusive Poolside Wine Bar will offer $5 house wines and, as an added bonus, a Poolside Margarita Bar offering $3 Margaritas – this price poolside only.\n\nCozy Cabanas, strategically placed throughout the pool area, will offer guests an exclusive, private place to ‘call their own’ during the party. Getting a cabana is the next best thing to getting a hotel room. Cabanas include admission for 4 guests, 2 bottles of wine (red and/or white), or a special edition Perrier Jouet Champagne gift box. For information or to reserve Cabana, call Sandy Trudel at 480-200-1087 or reserve one online at www.RavenEvents.com.\n\n\nINDOOR ACTIVITIES & AMENITIES\n\nWhen exploring the inside of the property, guests will be delighted to find two beautiful Lounges with full cocktail bars, non-stop dance music, a large silent auction, vendors, and mini Casino.\n\nTesoro Lounge is exotically decorated with plush couches in seductive lighting with a full cocktail bar. The lounge will be featuring DJ Evan Samurin who will be providing the upbeat vibe and danceable tunes. DJ Evan will be accompanied by Bryne Donaldson, one of the most talented saxophone players in the Valley. As a performer, Bryne is second to none when it comes to personality and musicianship as he never fails to win over a crowd.\n\nCeZar’s Restaurant comes with the Z Lounge and together the décor of these two rooms combines old world style with a new, modern flare. The entire area is designed and decorated like a Mediterranean villa, but has added a contemporary, hip feel. Guests will gravitate to the grand, curved bar under-lit with warm hues of elegant lighting.\n\nCeZar’s is known for its delicious food as well as Appetizers, and the on-site chef has prepared a special menu where everything is only $7 per item. Order at the bar and take your food anywhere throughout the party. Guests may order from the bars at Tesoro or CeZar’s.\n\nLocated within the Z Lounge are the lovely Dream Dealers, who will be taking care of the guests in the Casino area. Guests will have their choice of Black Jack tables, a Craps Table and a Roulette Table. All gaming proceeds go to the Charity. Charity volunteers will be selling vouchers for chips throughout the event for those that want to gamble on winning the grand prizes.\n\nA Silent Auction will be located within CeZar’s and will be presented by Charity Benefits Unlimited, a company who will be providing a wide variety of gifts, products and services. The silent auction will be open from 8 p.m. – 11 p.m. Charity volunteers will be selling Raffle tickets throughout the event for a chance to win fun prizes. \n\nLocal Vendors will be showcasing their unique wares for browsing and shopping. They include Marie Myers with CNI Core4, an innovative nutrient fusion weight loss system; Sally Lewis with Eclectic Earth, rare gifts from nature; Lisa Kasanicky with SpaBound offering summer savings on spa and salon services; and Amy Falkenberg with her line of Silpada Designs sterling silver Jewelry!\n \nTHE CLARION HOTEL SCOTTSDALE\n\nThe Hotel has made it possible for guests to stay and party all night without worrying about how many cocktails they’ve enjoyed or how tired they are. The Hotel Rooms open up right into the party and allow guests to have a place to change into or out of their swimwear, have a place to keep belongings as well as a place to relax before, during, and after the party.\n\nAnother highlight of this event is the Special Room Accommodations offered by the Hotel. Room packages start as low as $61 and includes the room with a special late check-out time of 1 p.m., admission to the party, and a breakfast voucher valid until noon. To reserve your room, call 480-945-4392. \n\nParking – There is plenty of self-parking space available throughout the entire property.
