Summary
The Medical Center Board and Auxiliary held a November 25 “Holiday Blues” benefit with Junior Valentine and the All-Stars at Holy Cross Parish Hall. The January follow-up thanks the committee, volunteers, donors, and performers for the evening’s food, drinks, and dancing. The event was framed within a public-health and fundraising campaign connected to leukemia.
