Doctors, nurses, and blood...oh my!

Last Friday we celebrated and had fun at our biggest annual fundraiser, our Beer Tasting event! This year we used the theme of medicine as the hospital building that we are in turned 100 this month.

This was a very fun theme to create from, and easy to do......

  • we of course recommended people come dressed in costume - there were doctors, nurses, patients, and even a "blood" costume (which won our grand prize draw, donated by Mark Anthony Group, of a countertop wine bottle fridge)

  • we changed all the signage in our building to reflect those you'd see in a hospital

  • we added colored tape to the floor from the entrance, to follow to other parts of the event (ie follow the blue tape to the bar)

  • the band, a local group called DNR, is a group of doctors and nurses, mainly from the emergency room at the Lethbridge hospital - they played some excellent rock music!

  • event bracelets said "Emergency Room" on them and people had to report to triage upon their arrival

  • we offered complimentary samples of Panago's Organic Juices in test tubes

and more!
