Carolina BBQ and Silent Auction

Carolina Barbecue & Silent Auction – Benefiting Cool Kids Clubhouse
Friday, June 13, 2025 | Splendor Pond Flower Farm, Mooresville

Mark your calendar for an unforgettable evening right here in the Lake Norman area! The second annual Carolina Barbecue & Silent Auction is returning to the scenic Splendor Pond Flower Farm in Mooresville—and it’s all for a heartfelt cause.

After raising over $20,000 last year, this highly anticipated event once again supports Cool Kids Clubhouse, a local nonprofit dedicated to lifting the spirits of children battling cancer through academic, emotional, and social support.

Guests will enjoy:

Delicious Carolina-style smoked pork shoulder prepared by award-winning Salisbury pitmasters
A lively cornhole tournament ($50 per team, registration encouraged)
A massive silent auction filled with unique items and experiences
Live music under the stars
An open bar and a beautiful atmosphere among the flowers

Whether you’re coming for the food, the fun, or the cause, it’s the perfect evening to connect with neighbors, support local families, and make a meaningful impact.

Tickets and sponsorships are available now

Sponsorships can also be arranged by mailing a check to Cool Kids Clubhouse.
