Why the Auction?

The NCS Country Fair & Auction is in its 62nd year! This massive event is our largest community gathering of the year. It spans two days and is packed with games, rides, food, and, of course, a high-energy live auction! All of the proceeds from the weekend are poured right back into our students, staff, and families through our general fund, helping bridge the gap between tuition and the total cost to run, maintain, and enhance the school and its assets. 

We couldn't be more grateful for you, our amazing community, who year after year generously comes together to support Nampa Christian's purpose to equip, shape, and disciple students' hearts, heads, and hands in the truth and authority of scripture. We can't wait to see you!

Raffle

Another fun way to engage with auction weekend is to buy a few raffle tickets! The experience up for grabs is a breathtaking aerial tour and breakfast for two. The tour includes Garden Valley, up the river to Stanley, south to Smiley Creek, back to the Treasure Valley to see the BSU football field, and finally to the Nampa Airport for breakfast at Tower Grill.

Tickets are $10 and the drawing will occur on auction Saturday around 2pm. You don’t need to be present to win. Search 'Raffle' or item #999 to add raffle tickets to your bid number!

Carnival

This year’s carnival is bigger and better than ever! We’ll have games, rides, inflatables, and concessions - tons of fun for the whole family! And here’s something new and exciting this year: Bouncin Bins has generously partnered with us to bring 13 different rides and inflatables for the whole carnival - we’re calling this area the Bouncin Bins Bonanza!

We have two different wristband options that will allow unlimited access to these activities - one that gives unlimited access to all the inflatables and another that gives unlimited access to the inflatables plus the other rides Bouncin Bins is bringing, like the 200-foot zip line, orbiter, bungee trampoline, and others.

Add your wristbands* to your bid number at the Info Booth or purchase them at the ticket booth inside the carnival!

*Wristband purchase good for 1 carnival session in the Bouncin Bins Bonanza - either Friday or Saturday - no refunds
