Mon. County VFD and WVU Medicine Children's partner for ‘Hope Bash'
MORGANTOWN, (WBOY) — The River Road Volunteer Fire Department and WVU Medicine Children's are teaming up later this Spring for the 'Hope Bash,' an elimination dinner that will benefit both organizations.
Besides the dinner itself, the Hope Bash will have live music performed by 'The Sages,' a musical group comprised of doctors from the hospital, along with raffles held throughout the event.
Assistant Chief of River Road VFD Mickey Rinehart said this will be the first time the two organizations have worked together for an event of this kind, but the two hope to plan more events in the future that will help them both continue their work in the community.
'[We are] both kind of on that same side you know—they're having the health of their children, and we have whatever people call for here. So we kind of thought that'd be a good fit to try to help both out,' Rinehart said.
Some NIOSH functions 'slated to resume,' Sen. Capito says
The Hope Bash will be held on Saturday, June 14 at the Morgantown Marriott at Waterfront Place.
To purchase a ticket, you can visit the Hope Bash website or speak to a River Road volunteer firefighter, or you can visit the River Road Volunteer Fire Department.
