Bon Air Open House Thanks Donors, Community
After opening to patients in late December, Children’s Hospital’s Bon Air Therapy Center held an official open house on April 28 with representatives from the hospital’s Board of Trustees, Foundation and auxiliary boards, and staff mingling with patients, families, referral sources and donors. Chesterfield native and NASCAR driver Denny Hamlin and Sen. John Watkins were honored guests at the morning celebration, which recognized the Center’s new larger, family-friendly space and the donors who made the opening possible. Following remarks from Leslie Wyatt, President/CEO, Sen. Watkins and Mr. Hamlin, guests enjoyed a ribbon cutting, facility tours and lunch.
Donations from American Family Fitness, Mr. and Mrs. John R. Congdon, Denny Hamlin Foundation, Junior Board of Children’s Hospital, Metropolitan Health Foundation and Sunshine Gift Shop of Children’s Hospital helped fund last year’s move to the Bon Air location. The Denny Hamlin Foundation continued its generosity with a $10,000 donation to fund therapy equipment at the Center.
