Annual "Sweet Arrival Soirée" Fundraiser Set for August 28
The F.F. Thompson Foundation's annual fundraiser, "The Sweet Arrival Soirée," is all set to take place on Thursday, August 28, 2025, at Lincoln Hill Farms in Canandaigua. The event will commence at 5:30 p.m.
Upon arrival, guests will be greeted with cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, and live music by Dave Turner near the farm’s silos. Following this, dinner will be served under the Sunflower Hill Tent, with a cash call and dancing to the Rolling Heads rounding off the evening.
Tickets for the event are priced at $250 per individual and can be purchased online at ThompsonHealth.com/Soiree. Limited sponsorship opportunities are still available for those interested in making a more significant contribution.
The presenting sponsor for the event is Genesee Construction, and the proceeds from the evening will support the expansion of Thompson Hospital’s Birthing Center, which is expected to welcome over 800 newborns this year.
Guests are encouraged to wear bright colors to match the candy-themed motif of the event. For additional details, you can contact the F.F. Thompson Foundation at (585) 396-6155 or via email at [email protected].
