Get ready to Dunk a Doc at second annual Lions Gate Hospital staff BBQ
Mark your calendars! The second annual Lions Gate Hospital BBQ for staff, physicians and volunteers takes place next week. This year’s theme is Dunk a Doc.
Day: Wednesday, June 15
Time: 11 am – 1 pm
Where: LGH upper parking lot (outside the Gymnasium)
Why: Lunch is compliments of Mike Nader, Chief Operating Officer – Coastal, and put on by the LGH Foundation (organized by the Staff Advisory Committee) to thank the staff/physicians/volunteers for their hard work and dedication and to kick off summer in style.
Sodexo is co-sponsoring the event and serving up burgers (beef or veggie), chips, pop and ice cream.
Free lunch (with ID)
Along with a free lunch for each staff member, physician or volunteer – ID badges required please (guests are $5) – attendees will be invited to join in a number of fundraising activities such as:
Dunk A Doc ($2/ball or 3 for $5), 50/50 draw and a Guessing Jar ($1/guess) – guess how many red syringe caps and you could win a $25 gift card to Mehri’s Place (all proceeds to the Foundation which go right back to the hospital).
Help us to improve patient care at OUR hospital!
