As part of a fundraising campaign to purchase a digital stereotactic mammography unit for the Cranbrook Regional Hospital, “Clearly… a Breast Friends’ Bash” took place on March 10 at the Black Forest Restaurant.

The event raised over $14,000 for the campaign, and organizer Sheila Tutty says they now have about $730,000 of the million dollars needed for the purchase the equipment. The Black Forest Restaurant also donated all the meals served at the event. Thanks to the popularity of the event, Tutty says they will likely hold a similar gala in late October, early November.

“It couldn’t have gone better,” Tutty said.
