The Fourth Annual Simi Valley YMCA Barn Party

UNLUCKY CARDS - Simi Valley YMCA employee Sonja Marotta giggles as executive director Mark Elswick cringes after losing a card game at the fourth annual Simi Valley YMCA Barn Party on Saturday evening. The barn party is the YMCA's largest fundraiser of the year and includes casino games, food, raffles and the "Bail and Jail," in which, for a small donation, guests can have the person of their choice "jailed" in a cardboard jail cell.
