Zachary's Wish



March 6, 2011
When the Make A Wish Foundation heard that 4 year old Zachary's favorite movie was Disney's "CARS", and his favorite character was Lightening McQueen, they sprang into action! Zach was diagnosed with a life threatning illness, and his wish was for a "CARS" birthday-complete with  jumper, car cake, car balloons, and all his preschool friends!

On his wish day, Zach arrived by limo and was greeted by a tunnel of volunteers who cheered and applauded as he walked into his own fantasy party room.



The Ballroom and Rock Garden transformed into the ultimate kid's party - complete with a DJ, balloons, face painting, tattoos, pizza, cupcakes, a bounce house with a slide, CARS character cut-outs, a Disney screen playing the CARS movie, an X-Box Kinect for the older kids, and fun games and toys for everyone!


 Thanks to a myriad of awesome volunteers, Zach had an amazing birthday party
 surrounded by all of his friends and family.


A special thank you to Illina Leff two time cancer survivor and husband Bob Leff, San Clemente residents and both wish granters for the Make a Wish foundation.
And thank you to Make a Wish Orange County & the Inland Empire Chapter.
The Casino was honored to be a part of this amazing celebration!


A personal "shout out" to my Daughters/Casino Queens and helpers that day.
We are blessed with my Mom and their Grandma, a 10 Year cancer survivor.
