During a festive dinner reception, 7x24 Exchange guests will catch a glimpse of the sun setting on the vistas of colorful cacti as you sip your favorite cocktail, taste tequila, visit with a cigar aficionado while enjoying a hand rolled cigar and participate in many activities that will include a variety of casino games, Mexican games and musical entertainment...
