The YPN’s annual holiday party was held on Friday, December 5, at the Radisson Hotel in downtown Bismarck. Over 70 people enjoyed great conversation with other YP’ers, complimentary hors d’oeuvres and champagne and beer (donated by the Ambassador Team). The event also kicked off fundraising for our 2014-2015 non-profit partnership with Special Olympics North Dakota – Bismarck.

There was a free-will donation box at the door and a drawing for several wine bottles. Winners of the wine bottle drawing were able to choose a wrapped mystery bottle to take home. Captain Jacks and Cash Wise were kind enough to donate 20 bottles of wine for the event. A total of $867 was raised from the free-will donations and ticket sales. The money was donated to Special Olympics North Dakota – Bismarck and will be used to purchase athletic equipment and jerseys for the athletes. Thank you to everyone who donated, purchased tickets and attended the event.
