I’m in. Events. and BASE Camp Children’s Cancer Foundation will host their 14th Annual Black and White Weekend at Full Capacity once again on Saturday, May 18th, 2024 at the Rosen Plaza on International Drive across from Pointe Orlando.

The Only Event of its kind in the World, Black and White Weekend is an incredibly fun and unique get together for wonderful people of all ages and work backgrounds from all over Central Florida and beyond for eating, drinking, dancing, mingling, socializing, networking, photos, entertainment, silent auction and so much more in a very upscale indoor and outdoor venue across two days and one incredible night all while supporting kids battling cancer and our ongoing well-being. For well over a decade, Black and White Weekend has become the premier awareness generator, fundraiser and one of a kind gathering designed to bring people together in honor of kids battling cancer.

“BASE Camp provides a year-round base of support for children and families who are facing the challenge of living with cancer and other life-threatening hematological illnesses.,” said Terri Jones- Robbins, President of BASE Camp. “The Annual Black and White Weekend provides vital support and we are truly honored to continuously be selected for such a meaningful and prominent event!”

“I first envisioned this event on my ORMC ICU hospital bed right before almost passing away in 2000 with a near fatal case of pneumonia,” said Entrepreneur, Philanthropist and UCF Hall of Famer Heissam “I’m in” Jebailey. “The annual theme now is simply the beyond strict dress code of all Solid Black, Solid White or Solid Black and White, including the shoes in honor of these kids who see the same two colors I did while in the hospital long ago.”

The 14th Annual Black and White Weekend will begin at 8:00 p.m. on Friday, May 17th through Sunday, May 19th, 2024. Admission is only $54+tax in advance ($85 at the door) with access to the entire weekend.
