Tickets On Sale Now
High Country Hospice is preparing for their first Fall Ball fundraiser. The event will be held at Chetola Resort in Blowing Rock from 7:00 to 11:00 p.m. on Saturday, September 19, and will feature fine dining, live and silent auctions. Master of Ceremonies Barry Woods, the community swing band and dancing will entertain attendees.
Candice Cook, marketer for High Country Hospice said the event has received great support from local businesses and community members.
“We have received enough sponsorships to fund the event, and we have some great silent auction items,” said Cook, “but we need more community members to purchase tickets to the event for it to be a success. Please purchase tickets by Friday, September 11, if possible because the cutoff day for ticket sales is September 15,” continued Cook. Tickets to the Fall Ball are $100 per person and can be purchased by clicking to www.highcountryhospice.org or at the High Country Hospice office. All proceeds from the Fall Ball will go to High Country Hospice patient care.
High Country Hospice is a nonprofit agency serving the needs of terminally ill patients and their families during the last days, weeks and months of their lives. Hospice care is designed to meet the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of the patients and their loved ones, but the needs are often difficult to meet due to limited funding
