Ball
1994 saw the first annual Wilson Memorial Hospital Foundaiton Ball. Much like the golf outing, it began simply and has become a gala affair. This event has provided a venue to not only raise funds for Wilson, but also to honor and recognize long-time friends of the Hospital. Previous honorees have been Dan and Jill Francis, Herb and Nettie Schlater, Gene and Nila Elsass, and Richard Scott just to name a few. Proceeds from this event have increased Wilson's General Endowmment Fund.
Each year when we attempted to identify a date for the ball it was a constant struggle to find a date that did not conflict with another event or an ohio state football game.
So, with the help of the ball committee, we have made the decision to change the timing of the ball from the fall to the first quarter of the year when there seems to be a whole lot of nothing to do.
As a result, we will not hold this event in 2009, but instead scheduled the next foundation ball in the first quarter of 2010.
Please mark your calendars for Saturday, March 6, 2010. We look forward to seeing you at the Piqua Country Club.
Thank you for all that you have done for our hospital over the years and thank you, in advance for, all that we will continue to do together to do to keep our hospital strong.
2010 Committee Members are: Ollie Anthony, Linda Campbell, Louie Francis, Rene Gottemoeller, Rhonda Keister, and Melissa McDonald
