The Annual WCH Auxiliary Raffle & Bazaar held November 20th was a tremendous success and surpassed the Auxiliary’s pledge of $50,000 toward the hospital’s renovation and modernization project. The fun-filled evening included a tasty menu of soups, under the direction of ‘Chef’ Angela Gambill, rounded out with fabulous homemade pies and assorted desserts to choose from. Hospital staff served the meal and helped with the cleanup. Santa and his Elves stopped in for photos with the little ones by Angela’s Portraits and a cake walk proved to be a new fun addition to the activities. The excitement really began when the Auctioneer began to talk… themed baskets filled with delightful surprises kept the bids climbing and the crowd enjoyed the bidding. Our sincere thank you to everyone who made this evening possible. There are many, many hours of planning and preparation that go into making an event successful and this one was beyond successful. Thank you to Auxiliary, President, Bonita Wells for your leadership and guidance; and to Bazaar Chair, Natalie Burnside for your creativity and hardwork in making this such a fabulous evening. Our thanks to every Auxiliary member who contributed in one way or another to help meet this challenge in support of our community hospital.
