Our green team came up with a sweet idea. To make a positive impact on the environment, the hospital campus began hosting a thriving honeybee colony, tended by a local beekeeper. In the fall he brings the honeycombs to an agriculture class at New Richmond High School, where students process the honey. This year, the bees produced enough honey to bottle up. The students loaded up 119 four-ounce jars of honey, most of which were raffled off to Westfields team members. The beekeeper, the students, Westfields Hospital, and the bees: All partners for good!

There was some mighty fine shootin’ going on at Westfields Hospital & Clinic Foundation’s 3rd annual Sporting Clays event last week. When it was all over, we’d raised more than $35,000 for the foundation’s Mission in Action Fund, which helps our entire community and ensures patients have quality care close to home. This year’s event welcomed 28 teams (up from 22 last year), with competitors ranging from high schoolers to retirees, with plenty of Westfields staff and community members in between. A big thank-you to all our participants, volunteers and sponsors! See you next year!
