West Jeff Hosts A Night in Rio

West Jefferson’s A Night in Rio Gala (www.wjmc.org/RIO) will be held Saturday, November 12, with a Patron Party at 6pm, and the Gala and Silent Auction from 7pm – 10pm. The gala will be held at Boomtown Casino & Hotel New Orleans in Harvey.

A Night in Rio is an exciting fundraiser benefiting the Cancer Center at West Jefferson Medical Center. The night will feature cancer survivor, Shannon Miller, the most decorated Olympic gymnast in American history. Shannon is a champion and strong advocate for cancer awareness and early detection, and she will help the West Jefferson Hospital Foundation honor our most generous cancer-fighting champions.

Enjoy a Brazilian-themed cocktail party, which sets an intriguing stage for this Carnival for a Cause. Complete with fine foods from great chefs, a silent auction, live music (including Brazilian samba entertainment), an open bar, unique specialty drinks and the chance for a photo with our special guest, Olympic Champion Shannon Miller.

Single Tickets are $75 and $125 for Event & Patron Party Tickets. They can be purchased online at www.wjmc.org/RIO. Table sales and sponsorships are also available.

Proceeds from ticket sales and sponsorships will benefit patients at the Cancer Center at West Jefferson Medical Center, which has the only radiation therapy available on the Westbank. The WJ Hospital Foundation, along with its sponsors, is very proud to provide this event to the community. For full details visit: www.wjmc.org/RIO.
