2024 Boys Town Blue Water Bash

13th Annual Boys Town Blue Water Bash

Saturday, July 27th! 

Event Update - Venue change

Storms and severe flooding have caused significant damage, evacuations and staffing disruptions at Boys Town's beloved Okoboji campground. While damage cleanup and extensive repairs are in full swing, this year's Blue Water Bash will still happen, but must be relocated to Okoboji Classic Cars at 810 Jeppeson Road, West Okoboji.

Our top priority is to ensure that our youth can still enjoy the fun-filled adventures and memory-making opportunities that the camp offers.  Restoring the camp is both costly and labor intensive and that's why we desperately need your support.

Your participation in this year's Blue Water Bash will help us to repair and maintain the campgrounds and enable our legacy of providing our children with an unforgettable true family vacation to live on.

Enjoy heavy hors d'oeuvres and an open bar as you browse the dozens of silent auction items up for bid and then get ready to raise your paddle for the exciting items in our live auction. Be sure to register your phone for early access and mobile bidding! To register, text boji24 to 76278.

We'll also have live music throughout the evening from Two Ol' Fishheads and after the live auction, the dance floor will be open! This is definitely a party at the lake you don't want to miss!

Sponsorships are greatly needed for this event. Give Boys Town kids a summer vacation they'll never forget.
