To the Editor: CMH Auxiliary Thanks the Community

Sun, Dec 26, 2010

To the Editor:

I would like to take this opportunity to thank our community for the amazing support shown the Community Memorial Hospital Auxiliary’s 55th Annual Holiday Sale, held this past Dec. 4.  I would also like to give a heartfelt “Thank You”, to those who participated in this year’s event.

Thanks to the folks who helped with the preparations and with the clean up after the event. Many thanks to those who made generous donations for use in the raffle baskets, and those who donated to the Kitchen Corner with wonderful homemade goodies, the Attic Treasurers for their very unique items, to the local crafters and the groups of “Twigs” and “Twiglets” for their artful handmade creations. Many thanks to the cooks and servers in the Café for their culinary delights, and a very special “Thank You” to the First Baptist Church who gives us the perfect location for this sale each and every year!

The money raised from this event helps with the needs of our local hospital, needs that are not always covered in their budget. We, the CMH Auxiliary, have pledged to the hospital, $20,000 a year for the next five years, which will be used for refurbishing patient rooms. This project is underway, and will continue until completed.

 We are very fortunate to have this hospital in our area. If you’ve ever had to use CMH, I am sure you were grateful that it was so near. Costs and budgets seem always on the rise, and anything that the Auxiliary can do to be of help, is our ultimate goal. With the continued support of the fine folks involved with this annual event, and you, the greater Hamilton community, we will do our utmost to meet these goals.

Thank you for supporting the Community Memorial Hospital Auxiliary!
