A day with a purpose

Who we’re serving

One day. Two families of faith.

A community celebration benefiting people walking through hard seasons — this isn’t just a festival, it’s a day with a purpose.

Local family

The Gibson Family

Ambrose Gibson is a 9-year-old from Navarre who underwent emergency brain surgery after an AVM caused a bleed. He’s now in intensive inpatient rehab in Jacksonville, with a Gamma Knife procedure ahead. His dad Jeremy serves on the Live Oak Church worship team. Every armband you buy helps carry this family through one of the hardest seasons of their lives.

Ministry partner

Heart of the Bride Ministries

Based in Niceville, FL, Heart of the Bride has served orphans, widows, and the vulnerable around the world since 1997 — building orphanages and delivering food across Africa, Haiti, India, and Ukraine. They hold a four-star Charity Navigator rating, one of the highest a nonprofit can earn. heartofthebride.org

Good to know

Frequently asked

What does the $20 armband include?

Everything: all-day access to the live entertainment, bounce house, water slide, and wiffle ball batting cages — plus one food plate (a burger or hot dog, two sides, and a drink). Ice cream is the only thing sold separately.

Do I have to buy an armband ahead of time?

No — buying online reserves your spot and helps us plan the food. You can also pay with cash or card at the gate on event day.

Can I just buy food without an armband?

Yes. A food plate on its own is $15 — a burger or hot dog, two sides, and a drink. The armband is only needed for the attractions.

Where does the money go?

Every dollar raised supports the Gibson Family and Heart of the Bride Ministries. Nothing is held back for overhead.

Is it family-friendly?

Absolutely. Bounce house, water slide, batting cages, live music, and a prayer station — it’s built for the whole family.

What if it rains?

The event runs rain or shine. Watch this page and our channels for any weather updates close to the date.
