North Country Ministry Spring Fundraiser
Black & White Sneaker Ball
Friday, May 1, 2026, 6-10PM
Fort William Henry Carriage House
North Country Ministry is excited to once again host our Spring Fundraiser at the Fort William Henry Carriage House on Friday, May 1, 2026!
This year’s theme is a Sneaker Ball, so lace up your kicks and join us as we come together to lift up our neighbors and support families across our community.
There are a limited number of rooms being held for this event at the Fort William Henry. To get our discount of $170 for a deluxe room you much call and ask for the North Country Ministry discount. Booking must be done prior to April 1, 2026 to get the discount.
Here we are, changing things up yet again… We will not have a live auction this year, instead we will have this!…
Card Raffle: Last Card Standing Wins!
Join us for a fun and exciting way to support North Country Ministry at this year’s event, our Card Raffle, where the very last card remaining takes home the prize. You must be present to win or have a representative present.
How It Works:
- Purchase a card:
- 1 for $200
- 3 for $500
- 6 for $1,000
- Each card in the deck (we will have a red & black deck total of 104 cards) will hopefully be sold, no duplicates, no repeats.
- You will receive a literal 1/2 of a card that is ripped. One 1/2 you will receive, the other 1/2 will go in a bucket.
- Once we are out of cards, we shuffle and begin drawing cards one at a time throughout the evening.
- Each card drawn is eliminated from the running, throughout the course of the evening.
- When only one card is left, that card’s owner wins the grand prize!
- We will have prizes for the last few standing too.
Why Participate
Every card purchased directly supports the essential programs and services we provide to individuals and families across the North Country. Your participation not only gives you a chance to win, it helps strengthen our community.
