Tickets are $35 and include dinner and beverage.

“Sequim Health and Rehabilitation and Crestwood Health and Rehabilitation are two of our largest sponsors and donors,” said foundation president Karen Rogers. “They have stepped forward significantly to help better the lives of patients at Olympic Medical Center.”

“Since we are both in the health care business, we are pleased to partner with the foundation and OMC,” said Sequim Health and Rehab administrator Ed Ebling.

“We have sponsored and donated to the foundation for several years now and we are pleased to be a part of the effort to make our local medical center a great rural center.”

“We appreciate the opportunity to make a difference,” said Crestwood Health and Rehabilitation administrator Jason Segar.

The two facilities also will continue to be the presenting sponsor of Festival of Trees and be involved in several other foundation events.
