Spot prizes, auctions, DJ + more — you don’t want to miss this night!

SUPPORTING CAM

Cam Mitchell is the Mountain Sales Manager at Cardrona and Treble Cone, and someone who's spent his life outdoors, on skis, on a mountain bike, or out hiking. In February 2026, Cam sustained a T6 complete spinal cord injury and was instantly paralysed.

Every ticket to this event goes directly towards supporting Cam on his rehabilitation journey. We’re raising $150,000 to make Cam’s goal of attending at least 6 months of specialist rehab a reality. Come join Cam for a special cruise, an incredible meal, entertainment, and help his recovery — with over $10,000 in prizes up for grabs on the night.
