NORWICH – Autumn is the time of year that we begin to think of upcoming holidays and celebrations. As you are planning for the months ahead, plan on spending an evening of celebration and tribute on Thursday, Nov. 7 at the Hospice of Chenango County’s Annual Dinner and Auction at the Canasawacta Country Club in Norwich. The event is held during November in recognition of National Hospice Month and to provide us the opportunity to honor this year’s Hospice Heroes.

Guests will have the opportunity to start their holiday shopping, bidding on nearly one hundred items on the silent auction table. “We ask individuals and businesses to donate something special for our auction and each year we are overwhelmed with the responses,” said the agency’s Executive Director, Patricia Outhouse. “Among the many items this year are a 1-week Blue Ridge Mountain Log Cabin Retreat and a 1-Year Adult Membership to the YMCA of Norwich.”
