there’s pirates in them there hills!

“This event just keeps on getting better! We hope that everyone who came last year will attend again this year and bring a friend who missed the fun!” said Mary Vance, Executive Director of the Clinic. 

Make plans to be a part of the most fun event of the year! Tickets cost $100.00 per couple, $60.00 per single and $10.00 per child. Parking in the city garage behind the Aquarium is free, thanks to the generosity of the City of Gatlinburg. This year, Greystone Lodge at the Aquarium is offering a special room rate of $35.00 for people attending the Ball.

In addition to pirate hats and eye patches, party favors will include a special “message in a bottle” (one for each couple or single). Bottles will contain your own piece of pirate booty (gemstone) and six special bottles will contain a hand-crafted piece of jewelry made from semi-precious stones.

Your attendance of our premier winter fundraising event will help to support quality healthcare for Sevier County’s families that have no health insurance. Services are provided to children and adults and fees are determined by the total household income of the patient. Your support will help keep our fees and costs low.

So shake off those wintertime blues and join the party! “The chance to dress up like a pirate, eat some great food, and dance to ”Rock-it” in the tropical environment of Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies adds up to a night to remember! Ripley’s Aquarium really knows how to have wonderful events. Their hospitality and creativity is second to none! Your evening of fun will help Mountain Hope change a life; perhaps save a life,” said Elaine Miller, director of marketing and development for Mountain Hope.

Tickets can be purchased at the Clinic at 312 Prince Street in Sevierville or from any Clinic board member. For more information or to reserve your ticket, call Elaine at 865-774-7684.
