BATC Community Development Corporation is again a sponsor for the 24th annual Festival of Trees, with funds being directed to Family Day. The Battlefords Union Hospital Foundation’s Festival of Trees is taking place at the Western Development Museum Nov 29-Dec 5, with Family Day taking place Sunday, Dec 1. BATC CDC has supported BUH Foundation since their beginning in 2007 and is a valued contributor to enriched healthcare. They have supported recent capital campaigns including the ears, nose and throat equipment, the new mammography unit and the current campaign, “Ready. Set. Baby!” to purchase new equipment for the Women’s Health and Birthing Centre. Sponsorship of the Festival of Trees is just another way BATC CDC gives back to provide the best in patient care for the Battlefords and surrounding communities, while also supporting an exciting Christmas event for everyone within the area. Family Day is a fun-filled day of activities for families to enjoy, including pictures with Santa, horse-drawn wagon rides, crafts with the North Stars and a Frozen Dance Party. Everyone is invited to attend this Christmas event with proceeds going towards the purchase of a new ventilator for respiratory therapy at BUH.
