Dust off your favorite cowboy boots and get ready for a night of big laughs and warm hospitality. The Washington County Bar Foundation invites the community to its upcoming Bourbon, Boots & Bling Comedy Night Fundraiser on Saturday, October 3, 2026, at the Main Pavilion at the Washington Park. This Western-themed evening promises a high-energy mix of stand-up comedy, music, rustic dining, and philanthropic giving. Attendees are encouraged to dress in their finest Western attire—from favorite boots to denim and a touch of bling—for an unforgettable night out supporting civics education programs, community giving, and access to justice initiatives.
The event features a top-tier comedy show, with live stand-up performances designed to keep the crowd laughing all night long. Ty Mac – of Improv Comedy Club, HBO’s Def Comedy Jam, BET’s Comic View, and Gig Salad Entertainer of the Year – headlines the show. WDVE Morning Show’s Mike Zydel will open, with local educator and comedian Steve Polansky emceeing the show. In between sets, local 18-year-old singer-songwriter Colby Wayne will entertain guests with his honest lyrics, laid-back style, and raw, acoustic sound.
Guests will enjoy a mouthwatering barbeque buffet featuring classic smoky favorites and all the fixings. Saloon-style spirits, specialty bourbons, themed cocktails and mocktails, as well as standard bar options will be available for purchase throughout the event.
Raffles, door prizes, and "fun"draising activities! Extra door prize chances awarded to those who dress in their western finery.
Proceeds from the event directly benefit the Washington County Bar Foundation's charitable programs, which provide law-related grants to local community organizations and support civic education activities throughout the county.
Tickets are limited and must be purchased in advance by September 23. Ticket price of $100 per person includes BBQ buffet, entry to the comedy show and entertainment, and door prize raffle ticket.
