Cuero, Texas: The 2019 Gala is just around the corner this spring and set for Saturday, April 27, 2019, so mark your calendars and get your tickets or sponsor tables for an unforgettable evening. The theme of the 2019 Gala will be "An Evening Under the Oaks" in which attendees will spend the evening under the oaks on the front lawn of Cuero Regional Hospital.

"Hosting the Gala at Cuero Regional Hospital helps us to turn our sights and attention to our mission as we view our main campus under the stars– allowing our community to enjoy seeing the numerous projects you have supported – all helping to provide quality healthcare services to our area," said Suzanne Bell, Dewitt Medical Foundation secretary and Gala chair." Proceeds from the 2019 Gala will benefit continuing education needs for CRH and employees, support retention efforts, as well as aid in talent recruitment."

"Rotel and the Hot Tomatoes, our music entertainment, put on a stellar show in the past, so we knew we must bring them back. The event will feature exceptional cuisine, traditional live and silent auctions, as well as a chance to network at one of the biggest parties in town," said Martin Leske, board president.
