Harvest Festival
Harvest Festival 2025: A Night of Decades, Dedication, and Generosity
On October 24th, the Boone County Hospital Foundation’s Harvest Festival transformed the historic 1868 Farmhouse into a lively celebration of Decades of Dedication — honoring 125 years of Boone County Hospital and the incredible community that continues to support it.
The evening was filled with fun, fellowship, and heartfelt generosity. Guests enjoyed a delicious meal catered by Lidderdale and an irresistible array of cupcakes donated by Robin Mitchell. The atmosphere was electric as friends, colleagues, and supporters came together to bid, laugh, and celebrate through the decades — all while raising funds for an important cause.
A special thank you goes to our Corporate Sponsors, generous donors, and the dedicated Harvest Festival Committee for making this event possible. And, of course, a huge shoutout to our dynamic auctioneer Halie Behr, who brought her signature energy and enthusiasm, keeping the crowd engaged and entertained all night long!
We’re thrilled to share that together, we raised over $60,000 toward our Fund-A-Need, supporting the purchase of a new ambulance for Boone County Hospital EMS. This critical investment ensures our emergency teams can continue delivering life-saving care across Boone County and beyond. Final net proceeds from the event will be shared soon.
