EAT, DRINK AND SHOP AT HOLIDAY CHEERS PARTY AND
Do you hear what we hear? The 2023 Holiday Cheers Party and Outreach Benefit is here! The committee and Associate Council have worked hard to launch the 26th Annual Holiday Cheers Benefit as a hybrid event...allowing you to bid on silent auction items from the comfort of your couch OR during the live event on Thursday, December 7 at the Savannah Center beginning at 5 pm. The Savannah Center is located at 5533 Chappell Crossing Boulevard in West Chester. This year, this event will be a plated dinner and will feature an all-new Heads or Tails raffle. The silent auction will launch online starting on Friday, December 1 and run through close during the live event on December 7. If you are registered to attend the live event, watch for details on setting up your online account to begin bidding. If you are NOT attending the live event, but still would like to participate in the silent auction bidding, click here. The GCNKAA Holiday Cheers Benefit provides SIX different opportunities in which you can participate. First, you may purchase raffle tickets and try your luck at winning an item in the raffle. Second, if you don’t want to leave an item to luck, you can test your perseverance in the silent bid benefit. The live auction offers you the chance to outbid your competitors on those once-in-a-lifetime items. Of course, the Mystery Bags make their return this year allowing you to puchase a Wine Mystery Bag for $40 OR a Bourbon Mystery Bag for $75! Each bag consists of a bottle of wine OR bourbon and a scratch-off lottery ticket. Some lucky bourbon mystery bags will also include $50 cash! After their success in 2022, the Deck The Walls Raffle returns this year. Each round of this raffle gives you a 1-in-52 chance to win your choice of one of 16 fabulous prizes. Simply make your selection and we will have the item shipped directly to you after the event is over. And finally - new this year - is theHeads or Tails Contest. You may purchase as many beaded necklaces as you wish for $10 each or 3 for $25.
