Get excited, because this year we have created a fantastic event for our patient body
to participate in with us. Family Dentistry of Okeechobee, that’s Dr.Davis, Dr.Laskey and Dr.McClane, has decided to host their first ever charity event with the participation of other local dental offices. Tenniswood and Associates, Wemmer Orthodontics, and Everglades Pediatric Dentistry will also be joining in the fun! All participating offices have chosen a local charity and they will be repurposing an old chair in their honor for our office wide raffle. Chairs will be held for raffle and display Monday February 24 through Friday March 7th in each local office. Our grand finale will be held in the Speckled Perch/ Cow Town festival, Saturday March 8th, where each chair will be displayed together. This will be your final chance to purchase raffle tickets. Raffle tickets will be $1 each or 6 tickets for $5. The dental office raising the most money will win the jackpot and all raffle proceeds will be donated to their chosen local charity. All dental offices will also choose raffle winners to take home their wildly decorated chairs. Visit your local dental office today for more information on “The Great Chair-ity Event” and their chair decorating progress. Please join in our event and help cheer on your favorite dentist and charity!
