Deal or No Deal is back! Join us at the Band Shell for your chance to win big money!
How it works:
There will be three rounds of Deal or No Deal for one contestant each time to test their luck and win big money.
You can purchase tickets for your chance to be drawn as one of the three contestants* for $5 each. You can purchase as many tickets as you would like to enter the contestant drawing.
If you get drawn to be a contestant, you will pick briefcases to try to walk away with all the money or you can settle for what the banker offers.
Location: Central Park Band Shell
Half of all proceeds earned will go towards our mission to help families in the Orion community with medical needs and half will go towards the Orion High School Volleyball Team for Volunteering during the event.
*There will be a new contestant each time. You can not be drawn more than once to play the game.
