Wonderland Camp, a beloved local organization dedicated to providing recreational opportunities for individuals with disabilities, had a big weekend this past Saturday with a successful casino benefit event that raised thousands of dollars for the camp.
The event, held at the luxurious Lake of the Ozarks Casino, attracted a large crowd of supporters who came out to show their support for Wonderland Camp. Guests were treated to a night of fun and excitement, with a variety of casino games, silent auctions, and raffles offering a chance to win a wide range of prizes.
One of the highlights of the evening was a live auction, featuring unique items and experiences donated by local businesses and individuals. Bidders competed eagerly for the chance to win prizes such as a weekend getaway at a luxury resort, a private dinner with a celebrity chef, and even a hot air balloon ride over the beautiful Lake of the Ozarks.
Throughout the evening, guests enjoyed delicious food and drinks, as well as live entertainment from local musicians and performers. The atmosphere was buzzing with excitement and energy as everyone came together to support a great cause.
By the end of the night, the event had raised over $50,000 for Wonderland Camp, a significant amount that will go towards providing scholarships and financial assistance for campers, as well as funding for essential programs and activities.
“We are overwhelmed by the generosity and support shown by the community tonight,” said Wonderland Camp director, Sarah Johnson. “This event was a huge success, and we are so grateful to everyone who came out to support us. The funds raised will make a real difference in the lives of our campers, allowing them to experience the joy and freedom of summer camp in a safe and inclusive environment.”
The success of the casino benefit event is a testament to the dedication and hard work of the staff and volunteers at Wonderland Camp, as well as the generosity of the local community. With their continued support, the camp will be able to continue providing life-changing experiences for individuals with disabilities for years to come.
