Bring your family to this amazing evening of magic with Garry Carson & Kelsey Kara at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, March 18, 2008 in the Creighton Middle School cafetorium at 75 Independence in Lakewood. This presentation is a benefit performance for Camp Paha, a day camp for children with disabilities, and the Creighton Middle School Honor Society hosted by Friends of Paha and Creighton Middle School Honor Society students.

Tickets are $10 for both children and adults and available by calling Friends of Paha at 303-987-4866 or Creighton Middle School at 303-982-6282.

Born and raised in Colorado, Garry Carson started performing magic at the early age of eight years old. Becoming professional by the time he was fourteen. His interest in the art of magic led him to perform for many fundraising events, clubs, and his educational School Program, "Knowing the Magic Words" throughout the Midwest, all before graduating from high school.

Working hard to perfect his magical talents, at the age of 25, Garry was chosen out of hundreds of magician's worldwide to open the new MGM Grand Casino & World's Largest Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada. Performing twelve shows a day, the six-month contract was held over for 2 ½ years.

Instead of seeing a Magician and an assistant jumping in and out of props, you will witness two performers working together as a team. Garry combines his magical talents with his partner and wife, Kelsey Kara.

Combining their talents and hearts together in marriage, they have been featured in several national and international publications as "Incredibly Talented Performers" who perform under impossible conditions.

Garry & Kelsey also have filmed many TV specials for audiences in the United States, Europe and Australia, including their most recent magic special, "Masters of Illusions" which was produced by Mrs. Blackstone.

Garry & Kelsey have performed in casinos, on stage, cruise ships, conventions, corporations, universities and many other fundraisers. They have been named the "number one casino family attraction" by Las Vegas Review Journal.

All ticket proceeds will be shared between Camp Paha, a day camp for children and young adults with physical, developmental, emotional, behavioral and learning disabilities ages 6-25 and the Creighton Middle School Honor Society. Camp Paha is held for 7 weeks each summer at an elementary school in Lakewood. Campers are able to participate in arts, crafts, sports, games, music, drama, nature exploration, outdoor living skills and outings into the community all adapted to fit the needs and abilities of the campers. The Honor Society is working hard to earn funds to hold their induction ceremony for this newly re-established organization.

Please join us for this fabulous fundraising event. Fun for the whole family.
