Ranken Jordan Pediatric Bridge Hospital

BEYOND GALA

Photos and story by Christina Kling-Garrett

Guests of Ranken Jordan Pediatric Bridge Hospital’s Beyond Gala gathered in Union Station’s Midway East in early April to celebrate the hospital’s 80-year history. After a two-year hiatus, the event allowed guests to gather in person, enjoying cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, bidding on silent auction items and dancing to the sounds of Miss Jubilee and the Yas Yas Boys. After that, everyone moved into the dining hall for dinner, a live auction and a presentation. Mike Bush and Cecila Detwiler served as co-emcees. Ranken Jorden’s president and CEO Brett Moorehouse presented Tom and Becky Minogue with the 2021 Service to Children Award for their nearly 40 years of service to the hospital. Dr. Nicholas Holekamp, the hospital’s chief medical officer, also spoke at the event. The Young Professional Board sponsored the after-party featuring Lustre Lights.

We were thrilled to finally reconnect in person, celebrate our 80th anniversary and raise significant dollars to give our patients a better chance of recovery. Thank you to everyone who made this event a night to remember.
