Masquerade Bash A Success
On February 19, Horizon held a Masquerade Bash at David & Buster’s in Addison Illinois. There were over 50 people in attendance and fun was had by all. There were plenty good appetizers, excellent DJ, and even raffle prizes. When people weren’t socializing with friends, they were able to go out and play some video games. One of the highlights of the evening was a very entertaining game of musical chairs which included bananas (should’ve been there to see it). Thanks to everyone involved in planning the event and all that donated.
With more little events like these, Horizon is on its way towards reaching its fund-raising goals for the year.
Year-Long Raffle Update
Horizon would like to congratulate its eight lucky winners of the Horizon Year-Long Raffle. Good luck to our next 60 potential winners, of which the next weekly drawing will be this evening. With all 4 of our $250 winners, 10 more $100 winners and many $50 winners yet to be determined, there is still plenty of money to be won. There are a few tickets remaining and if you are interested in a chance of winning and helping raise money for Horizon Camp, please contact Geri Skudney or Mike Trimpe for tickets.

2011 Summer Camp needs sponsors.
Horizon is working diligently planning this year’s summer camp program. We are anticipating over 210 total participants to attend. With more people in attendance, along with the standard increase in living, Horizon’s cost for camp rises. To help cover some of our expenses, Horizon is looking for people/companies to help sponsor camp. If you or someone you know are interested in being a sponsor, click on our Sponsorship Form for more information. There are four levels of sponsorship available, but any and all donations are appreciated.

2011 is approaching quickly
Can you believe 2010 is almost over…and you only have three days left to make your 2010 tax-deductible contribution!
In 2010, the Association of Horizon, Inc. held our largest camp session ever, giving a camping opportunity to over 90 adults with physical disabilities. Unfortunately, the record-breaking attendance also came with record-breaking costs. We will need record-breaking contributions to combat the costs of continuing our summer camp tradition. By the way, this coming year, will be our 20th annual summer camp!
Please consider making a tax-deductible contribution for the 2010 tax year that will help Horizon bring the joy of camp to the lives of as many people as possible. To donate online please click the donate now link.
Horizon Year Long Raffle
Horizon is selling tickets to its year-long raffle. There will be 52 weekly winners, 12 monthly winners and four quarterly prize winners. The best part about the raffle each ticket number has a chance to win more than once. Horizon is only selling a total of 1000 tickets and this will help increase the odds of winning. Each ticket is a $10 donation to the organization.
