The credit card that you used to purchase your tickets is securely on file in our event software, and all live auction or classroom creations winnings and fixed-price items will be charged to that card.
Tickets are available in advance via the CCC website. This check-in method allows your credit card information to be securely captured before the night and also gives CCC a sense of numbers to help with planning.
The children and teachers of each CCC classroom make a special donation for Celebrate CCC featuring the artwork of that classroom's children. These donations are then available for bidding both before and at the event. Win your child's classroom creation and take home a one-of-a-kind memento of their year at CCC!
Each year, there are items in the live auction that are meant to be bid on by a group — items such as breakfast with the Concord fire chief for up to eight children. Bidding for these items is most effective — and most fun! — when you put together the group going in on the item in advance. Group donations are listed in the auction program, which is circulated to CCC families a week before the event and is also available on-line. Get your group together, designate a group representative for the live auction, and get ready to bid!
The Cork Pull is a blind draw where everyone who buys a ticket wins a bottle of wine worth at least the value of the ticket, and one lucky winner will win a special high-value bottle. Buy your ticket, "pull" a numbered cork from a bowl, and see what you get! Stay tuned to hear what this year's high-end bottle will be, courtesy of Colonial Spirits! The Cork Pull table is in the check-in area and is very popular, so buy your cork when you arrive!
