Eat, drink, and support Goodtimes!
The Goodtimes Gala is our signature annual fundraiser, raising critical funds that enable us to provide deserving families with cost-free access to six camp/retreat sessions and more than seven single-day events each year—serving upwards of 700 participants.
Gala attendees participate in both silent and live auctions as well as a paddle raise, making meaningful contributions that support our mission. We are so humbled and thankful to have raised over $640,000 at the 2025 event, and we can’t wait to see what 2026 will bring!

The 23rd Annual Goodtimes Gala will be held on Saturday, May 2, 2026.

Tickets will go on sale in February, so keep an eye out and get ready to have a good time!
