The North Country Hardship Fund’s 17th Wayne Stock Festival will take place in North Creek, NY on Friday, Aug. 2, and Saturday, Aug. 3. The NCHF is a non-profit organization that fundraises through the festival to provide resources for those who have suffered recent tragedies.
Kicking off on Aug. 2, Wayne Stock XVII will be full of live music, food, auctions, and raffles, among many other festivities until 11 PM. The next day, Aug. 3 will provide an additional eleven hours of fun, starting at 12 PM. The free event will take place in North Creek‘s Ski Bowl Park, allowing attendees to enjoy a relaxing, yet fun and social outdoor environment, rain or shine.
Local bands will serve as entertainment throughout the two festival days, presenting various types of music and backgrounds to add to an exciting and unique experience. Guests are encouraged to bring their own drinks and food will also be available at the festival. Though the event is free, NCHF will offer plenty of ways to donate money through raffles, as well as auctions for the chance to win amazing prizes. Specifically, prizes at this year’s Wayne Stock Festival include a UTV, a dual-fuel generator, and $250 cash.
NCHF asks that attendees leave pets at home and don’t bring glass products to ensure general safety. Wayne Stock’s purpose is to bring the community together for a good time while contributing to very important causes. With the help of many local sponsors, NCHF, as well as the North Country community are able to raise funds to supply sources to families in need.
Wayne “Wayno” Bukovinsky created Wayne Stock in 2008 to raise money for a recent accident he had been in. Using proceeds from the festival he and his wife Tammy, started the North Country Hardship Fund. The non-profit continues raising money for those without the resources to recover financially from personal tragedies. Since Wayno’s death in 2023, Tammy and the NCHF community have continued his mission of helping others through his festival.
