The Doctors Lounge fundraiser

   2006

The 2nd annual Doctors Lounge held on Thursday, November 30, 2006 at the Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center. The event raised over $45,000 through sponsorships, ticket sales and a silent auction.  Entertainment was provided by local physicians who are also very talented singers and musicians. Master of Ceremonies for the event was Tony Clyburn from B106.7. We appreciate the efforts of all of our local talent in making this such a fun and successful event. The variety of music ranged from jazz piano to standards to rock. We are so fortunate to have such great talent in Columbia.  The silent auction grew tremendously this year thanks to Mrs. Pat Hick and her committee. Forty-eight individuals and businesses supported the auction with 60 fantastic items. Bidding was competitive as everyone wanted to raise money for the clinic while getting some really great items. We had a great variety of items including art, plants, skin care products, vacations and gift certificates to great local restaurants and spas.

Thank you to our performers, generous sponsors and also the individuals and businesses that donated items for our silent auction. And thanks to everyone who supported the event through attending and having a great time.
