Purpose
The Boulder City Hospital Auxiliary was formed by local Boulder City women to provide volunteer assistance and to raise money in support of the Hospital. Major fundraising efforts began in 1963 with the founding of the Art in the Park Festival. The first Art in the Park brought in $3,000 and involved fifty artists. In 2000 the fundraiser became so large that the Auxiliary voted to turn this effort over to the Boulder City Hospital Foundation. The Auxiliary is still very active in the annual event.
Contributions
The idea of making contributions of time, ideas and effort has been the core of the Auxiliary since its inception. Some contributions have included state of the art hospital beds, medical supplies, and equipment, dietary equipment and scholarships.
