Mansfield Reformatory Preservation Society’s 2nd Annual Fundraising Gala



Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What are the proceeds benefitting?

Proceeds are going to go towards building a permanent stage at the top of the pond.

Why does a permanent concert state at The Ohio State Reformatory matter?

At its core, the Ohio State Reformatory is not just a historic landmark – it’s a gathering place. A place where shared experiences create lasting memories. By establishing a permanent concert stage, we’re not simply building another venue – we’re building community.

What is the dress code?

Cocktail is fine, but it will be a themed event and we think you’ll want to join us in dressing for the theme! The theme will be announced on our social media in early February. 

Are we playing for real money?

No. Our casino experience will be for fun-money and donated prizes! All participants will start the night with $25,000. Gaming will run from 7pm-9pm. At 9pm, everyone will “cash out” for prize tickets. Prize tickets can be dropped in the bucket of your choosing at the prize table. Prizes will be drawn at 9:30pm. 

How can I help even if I cannot attend?

We are looking for silent auction donations as well as bottles of whiskey ranging in value from $25-$150+ for our whiskey pull. If you are interested in more information regarding how you can help, please reach out to Ashleigh Ramey at ashleigh@mrps.org or 419-522-2644 ext. 101.


We can’t wait to see you soon!
