The skies will light up over Prince County Hospital Wednesday night, December 7th, 2011.
Presented by the Credit Unions of Prince County, Lights for Life has raised close to $2 Million for the hospital foundation since its inception.
The 17th Lights for Life ceremony takes place at 6:30 p.m. with its annual holiday light ceremony. Each year light displays are dedicated in memory of a loved one, with all proceeds from the donations going toward equipment for the hospital.
THE PROGRAM
At 6:30 pm the Lights for Life ceremony begins in front of PCH, featuring live carolling by the PCH Staff Choir.
GUESTS MUST PARK AT THE SUPERSTORE OR WALMART, and walk to the hospital. There will be a shuttle service available from the Superstore parking lot on a “load & go” basis. This service (courtesy of Summerside Chrysler Dodge) will be available between 5:45 and 6:15 PM. They will return guests after the ceremony. There is no public parking on site other than staff, patients, event volunteers, and patient visitors. The MacEwen Rd entrance will otherwise be closed to general traffic as directed by volunteers from the Summerside Lions Club and the Atlantic Police Academy Law & Security and Corrections students.
LIMITED PARKING starting at 5:30PM, 50 parking spaces will be provided for the elderly and people with disabilities in the public parking lot. Vehicles must display valid disability parking tag or have occupants who are clearly elderly.
PLAN B
Should there be a storm or other event that will inhibit Lights for Life, the ceremony will be pushed to December 8th at 6:30 PM. Notifications will be sent to all major media outlets and posted on PCHCARE.COM
Gifts can be made at the PCH Foundation office in the hospital, online at www.pchcare.com or by calling 432-2547.
