It was an absolute pleasure to capture this event on June 10th for Southwestern Vermont Medical Center as they celebrated 100 years of providing healthcare to Bennington and the surrounding communities. We had perfect weather from the morning UCS 5K and kids fun run, to the parade with two women who are 98 and 101 years old! Other highlights included opening ceremonies, Jump Rope Race challenge, and hats off to Joshua of CircOvation and all of the vendors who turned out to cook food and the hospital staff who baked some delish cake with a historical timeline printed on them for everyone to enjoy. We also captured a group photo of those in attendance who were born at the hospital (including my son Ryan). And to finish off the day with bubbles to those who we have lost to cancer and watching as the Julie Shea Band let their soul shine—it was a perfect way to end the celebration.
This truly is a community hospital in every sense. Please share this link with family and friends who were there. (For your convenience, you can order prints right from the gallery by clicking the “buy” button.) Enjoy!
