The Celebrities for a Cause 2022 charity event is set to kick off this Thursday night, beginning with a rodeo after a meet and greet with celebrities in attendance.

The event will continue on Friday with a golf tournament, beginning at 9 a.m.

Tickets will be between $30 and $40 depending on the hole, and will feature more than two dozen celebrities across a range of sports, music and entertainment.

Those in attendance will include MLB players Mike Lansing, Jeff Frye, John Rocker, Joey Hamilton, Brian McRae, Rick Wrona and Michael Hampton.

NFL players Jay Hagood, Marcus Stroud, Anthony Smith, Chris Cooley and Ryan Yarborough are also expected to attend, as are NBA players Scot Pollard, Jumaine Jones and Milt Palacio — along with a wide range of other celebrities.

Following the golf tournament, there will be a banquet dinner beginning at 6:30 p.m. at the Riley Arena in Cody. Guest speakers will include keynote speaker Brendan McDonough, who was the lone survivor of the Yarnell Hill Fire Tragedy in Arizona, and Fredia “The Cheetah” Gibbs, a world champion kickboxer.

Jones will also be a speaker during the dinner, and Pollard will be the master of ceremonies for the event.

Tickets for the event range from $60 to more than $600.

The festivities will wrap up Saturday night, with Walkout FC 19: Fight for Mental Health.

This will be a Mixed Martial Arts fight night for charity.  Fundraising this year will focus on raising awareness for mental health, with funds going to Mindful Sport and Performance and Healthy Park County.

Last year’s event raised more than $50,000 that was donated toward ending cancer.
