Fundraising & Events:

February By Candlelight Sunday, February 14, 2010
This event is put on by Cathy Galloway for the clinic. Women who want to be involved volunteer to be table captains. They invite 7 friends to help them decorate a table with a theme and bring food for their table. The tables, which are always beautiful, are open to the public to view the day of the event. After the viewing, the table captains and their guests gather to enjoy the food and the fellowship for about an hour. A short program follows and a drawing for door prizes ends the evening.
"Tablescapes and Recipes Presented By The Women of Marshall Michigan" is now available and may be purchased for $10 between 1-4:00pm before the dinner at The Franke Center. All proceeds go to the Fountain Clinic.
