44th Annual Big Event

Let Freedom Ring

April 2026

We celebrate the 250th birthday of our great nation with this year’s Big Event, and we’ll also
hearken back to Big Events of yesteryear with some of the activities. Get ready for a fun night
of bingo and delicious hamburgers on Friday, April 10, with some great jackpots up for grabs.
Saturday, April 11, features a gourmet duo with dinner catered by Olaf’s and the new Four
Forks. The night will include entertainment, drawings, a silent auction, and a limited live auction.
More details coming soon.

Sponsor tickets for Saturday night go on sale February 11: John Adams - $500 each;
Thomas Jefferson - $250. Betsy Ross (non-sponsor) tickets are $175. Corporate sponsorship
packages are also available for $5,000 and $2,500.

Big Event season has already begun, though, with 50/50 raffle tickets available now. The
winner will receive 50% of the proceeds of the raffle on prepaid credit cards. Tickets for a rifle
drawing will also be available soon. The winner of the limited-ticket drawing receives a Bergara
BXR .22 rifle.

This year’s auctions and drawings will feature an array of fine art, items, and events:
Texas Rangers tickets, a guided fishing trip, Pappy Van Winkle 15-year-old bourbon, a private
mixology party, jewelry, assorted gift cards, and art, photography, and pottery donations from
your favorites.
