Boots & Bourbon returns for its third annual celebration on Thursday, August 6, inviting the community to come together for an evening of music, food, drinks, and generosity in support of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Western North Carolina.

Held from 5:30 to 8:00 P.M. at scenic Chimney Pond Farm, 240 Chimney Pond Road in Glenville, the lively summer gathering will raise critical funds for youth mentoring programs serving children and families across the region.

The evening will offer a memorable blend of mountain charm and meaningful impact. Guests can enjoy live music from talented local youth musicians, creating a warm backdrop for a night of connection and celebration.

Guests will also have the opportunity to sample specialty bourbons, handcrafted cocktails, and local beers, all paired with a delicious Southern-inspired dinner by The Village Pantry of Cashiers that reflects the warmth and hospitality of Western North Carolina. Live and silent auctions will add to the excitement, giving guests the chance to bid on unique items and experiences while directly supporting an important cause.

While the event promises plenty of fun, its mission remains at the center of the evening. Every dollar raised through Boots & Bourbon helps Big Brothers Big Sisters of Western North Carolina connect local children with trained, caring mentors who provide encouragement, consistency, and support.

Through one-to-one, school-based, and group mentoring programs, the organization builds life-changing relationships that help young people gain confidence, develop resilience, and recognize their full potential.

The need for these relationships is especially urgent in Macon and Jackson counties, where many children are currently waiting to be matched with a mentor. By attending Boots & Bourbon, supporters are doing more than enjoying a beautiful evening out—they are helping create brighter futures for local youth and strengthening the community as a whole. It is a chance to come together in a spirit of generosity and help ensure that more young people have someone in their corner to listen, guide, and believe in them.

Whether you are a bourbon enthusiast, a fan of live music, or simply someone who believes in the power of community, Boots & Bourbon offers the perfect blend of entertainment and purpose. Organizers invite guests to dust off their boots, raise a glass, and take part in a night that celebrates both the beauty of Western North Carolina and the lasting impact of mentorship.

Tickets are available now at secure.qgiv.com/for/boobou202, and each ticket helps bring a child one step closer to a life-changing connection.
