The NCHS Scholarship Foundation (NCSF) will hold its second NC Color Drop on Saturday, March 26th, 2022, at 10:00am. After a successful event last year, a sleek Bell407 helicopter, courtesy of HeliNY, will once again fly over the skies of New Canaan and hover over Waveny Park, safely releasing more than 1500 colored golf balls over a designated target. Each golf ball will have an assigned number. The lucky person whose ball lands closest to the target will win a fabulous prize, such as a Momentum Transend Electric Bike, a Pet Portrait by Emma Sims, Mayfair Tickets, and an 84 Sports NC Gift Basket. The winning balls will be announced immediately. 100% of the proceeds will be donated to the NCSF for need-based scholarships given to NCHS graduates.

Bill Egan, NCHS Principal and Chairman of the NCSF, believes the 2022 NC Color Drop is an opportunity for the community to make a difference in the lives of students. “Transitioning to the Color Drop last year was so exciting and we are looking for the same amount of enthusiasm this year. Seeing a rainbow of golf balls raining down on the field was a thrill and knowing that each bit of color represented a donation to help a student made the NC Color Drop a special way to celebrate NCSF.”

Spectators will be allowed to view the NC Color Drop from a safe distance in Waveny. Golf balls will be available for purchase online beginning March 1st at nchs-sf.org.
