On October 20, 2007 the cafeteria at St. Catherine Hospital was once again transformed into a wonderland for the evening for the annual St. Catherine Hospital Development Foundation Gala; "Garden City Lights."  The band "Big Fat Fun" from Wichita, Kansas provided the entertainment for the evening.  The Plaza Hotel provided a buffet dinner.  Jeff and Sandy Linenberger of Goldworks generously donated a custom designed pair of diamond and gold earrings, valued at $4,495.00 to be given away. 

The Foundation was incorporated in 2003 to provide financial support to the hospital for future development and special projects. The funds raised from the Gala will go towards development of the SCH Cardiac Center. The Foundation would like to extend special thanks to our major sponsors and to the community for making this the most successful Gala ever. Plans are already underway for next years Gala which will be held on October 18, 2008. Mark your calendars now. If you would like to serve on the Gala committee or help with the Gala please contact Janie Wimmer at 620-272-2529 or janiewimmer@catholichealth.net.
