The NCMC Foundation and Holiday Hoops committee extend their gratitude to everyone who helps make this annual event a success. Once again, area businesses and organizations are stepping up to provide volunteers each day to assist with the front gate, answer questions, and welcome fans. This year’s day sponsors include BTC Bank, Farmers Bank of Northern Missouri, Farmer’s Electric Cooperative, North Central Missouri College, NCMC Foundation & Alumni Association, Trenton Rotary Club, and US Bank.

We are incredibly thankful for the support of our volunteers,” said Nate Gamet, Committee Member and NCMC Athletic Director.  “In addition to day sponsors, we rely on volunteers for tasks such as operating the official clock and scorebook, selling raffle tickets and t-shirts, and assisting with hospitality. Their dedication is essential to the success of this event.”

Proceeds from raffle ticket sales will provide a 2024 Holiday Hoops participant with a scholarship to attend NCMC next fall. Donated raffle items include a Good-One grill, meat bundles, and RTIC coolers, courtesy of Landmark Manufacturing, Smithfield Meats, and Scobee Powerline Construction, LLC. Tickets are available throughout the 45-game event at $1 each, 6 for $5, or an arm’s length for $20. Winners will be announced on December 31st.

Daily admission for the 2024 event will be $5 for everyone over the age of 12, while children 12 and under are admitted free.  Commemorative program book featuring participating teams and event sponsors will be available for purchase for $5, and event t-shirts showcasing the refreshed logo and sponsors can be purchased for $10.  A nine-day event pass is also available for $30 at the NCMC Foundation office.
