“The support our area has given over the years has been overwhelming and allowed the hospital and family clinics to grow into modern facilities with the latest medical equipment and technology. Our hospital would not be the hospital it is today without the generous past support of the communities we serve,” said Greg Sims, CEO Hamilton Memorial Hospital.

The evening will include piano entertainment provided by Janice Rose and dinner will include buttermilk pecan chicken, stuffed pork loin, cream cheese mashed potatoes, vegetables, and dessert. A short program will follow dinner.

Individual tickets can be purchased in advance for $50 or dinner sponsorship are available for $250, $500, $1000, $2500, and $5000. Donations are tax deductible.

“With the leadership of our Foundation board and the support of the community, just this past year we were able to fund a brand new, state-of-the-art 64-slice CT scanner for $400,000. This life-saving piece of equipment is used thousands of times every year and is a central to the work we do at Hamilton Memorial,” explained Victoria Woodrow, Hamilton Memorial Hospital Foundation & Marketing Director.

Proceeds for this year’s dinner will be used to purchase two bariatric patient beds for the medical surgical unit of the hospital.
