Night at the Races
SATURDAY, MAY 17, 2025
6:30 PM - 11:00 PM
Corpus Christi School Gym
Festive attire and fascinators recommended as you join us for a night of socializing, horse racing, raffles, music and FUN while enjoying food, wine, beer, and more during our BIGGEST fundraiser of the year!
This year we are aiming to raise funds for our Student's Technology Resources, a Projector Screen for the Gym, and the remaining cost of new Playground Slides!
Night at the Races is the next best thing to being at a live horse racing event! 11 live virtual horse races, with 10 horses in each race, will be broadcasted on a large screen every 20 minutes while a race caller announces each race! You do not have to be a member of a CCCS family to join us for our Night at the Races fundraising event... the more the merrier!
Please click our order form below to purchase admission, scratch offs, raffle basket tickets, and up to 3 horses before Friday, April 25th.
Betting tickets, 50/50 tickets, and raffle basket tickets will be available to purchase during the event by Venmo or Cash.
Our live virtual auction will begin at 6:30 PM on Friday, May 16th and will close at 6:30 PM on Sunday, May 18th. Details below!

HOW TO BET
You will receive an event program when you arrive which contains the name and owner's name of each horse that was purchased. Look through the program and decide which horses you like.
Purchase betting tickets utilizing cash or venmo at the betting window. Make sure to write your order number (provided on your envelope) on each of your betting tickets.
To officially place your bet, go to the betting window and place your betting ticket(s) in one or more horse's baskets of your choice. The betting window will close a few minutes before each race begins.
After all the bets are collected for an individual race and the winning horse is announced, payouts are calculated based on the total amount bet on that race and the number of bets on the winning horse. For example, if Race #1 raises $150, $75 will go to Home & School and $75 will be divided equally among the people who picked the winning horse. If that turns out to be 5 people, you would receive $15 from a $3 bet.
