Foundation celebrates Mardi Gras with a successful winter gala

Mar 1,2010

A special thank you to those whose time and energy went into making this year’s InReach Winter Gala a great event. The Albany General Hospital Foundation continued to set records raising more than $61,000 at the gala.


Hosts Patti and Paul Daskalos, D.O. did a fantastic job entertaining the crowd with the help of some outstanding West Albany High School (WAHS) students.


The young men of the WAHS Baseball Team provided valet parking, assisted our guests, The WAHS Jazz Quartet, coordinated by Jacob Potter, provided wonderful jazz music and with the assistance of your WAHS leaders, through raffle sales and ‘sponsor a child’ donations, over $6,300 was raised that evening by the students.


The students included: Josh Bewely, Savanah Carroll, Sierra Carroll, Jonathon Coren, Alexa Daskalos, Cole Eberhart, Audrey Fraizer, Tanner Hall, Trey Kenyon, Tucker Keuter, Nick Lebengood, Jacob Potter, Harry Reid, Jackson Ruckert, Tevin Schindler, Matthew Schueller, Mikayla Smith, Jonathan Stavros, Jacob Stitzel, Brady Webster and Black Wimer.
