On behalf of David’s Chair, we invite you to become a sponsor of the 2026 Big Weekend Dinner & Auction Fundraiser. This special evening will take place on Saturday, October 17, 2026, at The Jackson County Expo inside the Olsrud Arena.

The Big Weekend is far more than an evening of dinner and auctions. It is one of the most important fundraising events of the year for David’s Chair—and an opportunity for our community to come together in support of a mission that changes lives.

A MISSION OF FREEDOM

David’s Chair enriches the lives of people with mobility impairments by providing independence and freedom through access to outdoor activities they previously could not experience—FREE of charge.
For someone living with a mobility challenge, something as simple as reaching a fishing spot, exploring a hiking trail, enjoying a day at the beach, going hunting, or playing a round of golf can seem impossible.

David’s Chair works to change that.

Through track chairs, adaptive golf programs, community partnerships, and outdoor adventures, we create opportunities for people to participate rather than watch from the sidelines.

YOUR SPONSORSHIP MAKES A DIFFERENCE

When your business sponsors The Big Weekend, you are doing more than supporting a fundraising event.

You are helping create freedom.

Your sponsorship helps us:

  •  Keep People Moving — Maintain and operate track chairs so people can access places they once thought were out of reach.
  •  Open the Outdoors — Support hunting, fishing, hiking, beach excursions, camping, sightseeing, and other adventures.
  •  Create Family Memories — Help individuals participate alongside spouses, children, grandchildren, friends, and loved ones.
  •  Expand Adaptive Golf — Support the Dennis Duchi Adaptive Golf Program and its growing outdoor and simulator golf opportunities.
  •  Expand Access — Help establish additional locations and reach more people throughout our region and beyond.
  •  Keep Services FREE — Most importantly, help us maintain our commitment to providing these opportunities at no cost to the people we serve.

Your sponsorship can become part of someone's story—the story of a person who wanted to get outdoors, participate with their family, go to the golf course, reach the beach, or simply experience the freedom of saying:

"NOW I CAN."
