Summer Fun with a Purpose: Events Support NCCS’ Work to Help
Those in Need
You can help support NCCS and have fun at the same time by participating in the following summer events:
August 20 Northern Midsummer Shindig
Join us on Thursday, August 20 from 6 p.m. - 9 p.m. for the Northern Midsummer Shindig. “What is a Northern Midsummer Shindig?” Well, it is a big city black-tie affair, altered to accommodate our hometown country flair!
The Northern Midsummer Shindig will be held outside under a tent at NCCS in Fremont. The evening will include a steak and BBQ chicken dinner, wine-tasting, entertainment by the River Valley Ramblers and a live auction. Auction items may be viewed at:www.nccscares.org
Proceeds from this event will help fund all NCCS operations, providing housing and family services, homelessness prevention, youth and elderly services and more.
Tickets are $100 per person or $175 per couple. You may sponsor a table for $600 and receive eight tickets. Don’t miss the event of the year! Contact Paula Scott at 924-0641, ext. 110 or email at: pstewart@nccscares.org for more information.
August 22 Steak & Burger Golf
Join area golfers on Saturday, August 22 at the Village Green Golf Course, Fremont, for a 9 a.m. shotgun start and a day of fun for a good cause.
The third annual Steak and Burger fundraising event – this year taking the form of a golf scramble – will raise funds for the NCCS Boys and Girls Club. Locally, NCCS runs Boys and Girls Club at its service center in Fremont and at the Newaygo Middle School. Boys & Girls Club provides programs and acitivities to help young people to realize their full potential as productive, caring citizens.
The cost is only $75 per person/$300 per 4-person team and participants get to play 18 holes of golf with a cart, AND enjoy a great steak and burger dinner following the round. All this plus great prizes and a raffle make the Steak and Burger Golf Scramble a “hole-in-one” event that you won’t want to miss.
Those who don’t golf but would still like to support NCCS Boys & Girls Club may attend the dinner only for just $20. For more information, please call 924-0641 or visit www.nccscares.org to download a registration form.
