Boots and Bling 2023: Phenomenal Community Support
The annual Eastland Memorial Hospital Volunteers’ Boots and Bling Charity Ball took place at the Lumberyard in Eastland on the evening of February 11, 2023. Boots and Bling has been a popular fundraiser for the hospital and the Volunteers. The Volunteers put a tremendous amount of effort into making it a success. James Doyle of Spanky’s Catering served a delicious meal that was followed by a fundraising auction conducted by David Bailey from First Financial Bank. Afterward, everyone enjoyed the fellowship of the evening with a live band and dancing. Thanks to the phenomenal support of the community, the Volunteers cleared $58,500 after expenses. Since 2007 the Eastland Memorial Hospital Volunteers have raised and donated $573,159 to Eastland Memorial Hospital to purchase new, state-of-the-art equipment. The Boots and Bling Charity Ball is their biggest annual fundraiser, and this year was no exception. 03/30/2023 12:00 AM
