People dressed up in their finest for the fourth annual Redneck Ball, a fundraiser for the Trout Creek Community Improvement Association (TCCIA).
The event included bucket raffles, a live auction and wild redneck entertainment for the more than 150 attendees.
Auction items included two chainsaws, a kayak, a load of firewood (which winner Harold Hudson donated back for the auction) and a knife made by Bob Crowder.
TCCIA chair Liz Stender said that while a grand total hasn't been counted yet, the event raised a lot of money for the group's events, park improvements and community goodwill projects.
"The event was a hug success thanks to all the donations and community support," Stender said. "Our talent was again hilarious!"
