The Beaufort Memorial Foundation honored many of its major supporters at the annual “Valentine Ball kick-off” party last week. Hosted by the hospital as its way of thanking the committee chairs and dinner party hosts who enable the ball to be so successful year after year, the event was held in the brand new home of Drs. Jennifer Wallace and Aaron Sarathy. Amy Geier and Jessica Long headed the committee that planned the party, always a culinary extravaganza featuring an extraordinary “live buffet” where most items are prepared on-site by the hospital’s food services staff under the direction of Executive Chef Eric Sayers. Guests always ask who catered the event – and are astonished to learn that it’s the hospital itself.
The 2015 Valentine Ball will be held next Saturday, February 7 at the hospital’s Medical & Administrative Center across from the main campus. For more information visit valentineball.org.
