Hospice of Central New York and of the Finger Lakes will show donors the movie “Angels in the Outfield” at their fourth annual Film on the Field fundraiser at NBT Bank Stadium in Syracuse.
The event is set for 5:15 – 9:30 p.m., Wednesday, Aug. 14.
The evening begins with concessions and entertainment, including face-painting, balloon twisting, a photo booth and a visit from Syracuse University’s Otto. It ends with a fireworks show.
Advance sale tickets for the event are required, and can be purchased at filmonthefield.givesmart.com.
Required donations are $25 for adults and $10 for children 6-12; children 5 and under are free. There also are limited VIP packages that can be purchased and a silent auction that can be accessed with the same link.
All proceeds from the event support the hospice mission to serve as the community’s expert resource at the end-of-life, by providing comprehensive comfort care to patients and families through unique interdisciplinary services, bereavement counseling, education and collaboration.
People attending this rain or shine event are able to watch the film on the field or in the stadium seats. The stadium concession stands will be open for purchasing refreshments, and parking for the event is free.
“Hematology-Oncology Associates of CNY (HOA) is proud to be the presenting sponsor for this event to support the tremendous love and caring hospice provides to our community,” said HOA’s CEO Maryann Roefaro. “The services Hospice provides to improve the quality of life and dignity for patients and their families is invaluable.”
