Diamonds & Denim: A Night to Remember, a Community to Thank
Dear Hood County Stampede Friends,
Our 2026 Diamonds & Denim Gala is in the books, and our hearts are full! On October 3, our community came together for an evening of music, laughter, cowboy formal style, and generosity—all in support of Hood County Christmas for Children.
With Jason Boland providing the entertainment and Flint Rasmussen helping bring the evening to life, we had plenty to celebrate. But the heart of the night was the kindness of everyone who showed up to help make Christmas brighter for children right here in Hood County.
To our guests, sponsors, donors, volunteers, and everyone who helped behind the scenes: thank you. Whether you purchased a table, raised your hand during the auction, funded a Christmas wish, or gave your time, you were part of making this evening possible. All support stays here in Hood County, helping local children and families.
Your red carpet photos are ready!
We’ll share the full event photo album soon, so keep an eye out for more memories from the night!
The gala may be over, but the Christmas giving continues. Angel cards are available now, and you can adopt a child on your own or gather friends, coworkers, a church group, or a book club to shop together. Reach out to us to get started—you don’t have to wait until December to make a difference.
Thank you for being part of the Hood County Stampede family and for helping us turn a fun evening into something meaningful for our community.
With gratitude,
The Hood County Stampede Board
