On Saturday, August 11th, the Foothills Country Hospice Society hosted their first EVER Rally 4 Hospice! The day was a massive success! Collector and speciality owners of the Foothills gathered for an adventure through the scenic Foothills, completing a series of challenges and competing for the best time! The rally began at the Hospice, and ended with the finish line at The STASH Luxury Garages. A delicious lunch, served by the George Traditional House and COBS Bread, preceded the beginning of the rally so the racers could fuel up and play their best game! It is always a joy when great local businesses come out to support a great local event!

 

All car enthusiasts of the Foothills were welcome to peruse all of the 50 antique, vintage, and unique cars at the starting line! The car above belonged to Rod Stewart - how cool!

After all participants had successfully completed the rally, they gathered with friends of the Hospice to an evening gala at Spruce Meadows. The 10 Years of Caring Gala celebrated the philanthropic efforts of the Foothills Country Hospice Society and all the positive things they have done for the community. With a dinner, live auction, and dueling pianos, the fun did not stop as the rally winners were also crowned! Congratulations to everyone who participated in the day!

 

Also, a big thanks to Stephanie Barnes and Dawn Elliott of the Foothills Country Hospice Society for having the Eagle Street Team in attendance! You did a wonderful job organizing the event and bringing the community together in support of such a wonderful and necessary cause!
