The Giveback Gala: Dancing for Dave

The Giveback Gala: Dancing for Dave is a special evening bringing the Hamilton community together for a night of music, dancing, and generosity in support of Dave Ferguson, who is bravely battling Stage 4 colon cancer. This elegant prom-style gala invites guests to dress in their finest and enjoy a memorable night featuring a DJ, catered dinner, raffle baskets, a silent auction, and a split-the-pot drawing.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of local Hamilton businesses and community members who have already stepped up to donate, the evening will include exciting raffle items and auction prizes—proving once again that Hamilton shows up when it matters most. 

Held at The Bearded Saddle on May 30 at 7 PM, the event will also include shuttle bus transportation so guests can relax and safely enjoy the celebration. A special thank you goes out to Nicci and Brad from The Bearded Saddle, whose generosity in providing the venue made this event possible—without them, this gala would not have happened.

If you are a local business owner, restaurant, organization, or community supporter and would like to contribute, we are gratefully accepting gift baskets, gift cards, swag items, raffle prizes, silent auction items, or monetary donations to help make the evening even more impactful. Please reach out if you would like to be part of this special night of giving back. More than just a gala, this event is a reminder that when someone in our community needs support, Hamilton does not disappoint.
