Fourth Hog Wild event features rib cook-off

SEQUIM — “Hog Wild — A Night of Games, Suds and Grub” will raise money for the Olympic Medical Center Foundation on Aug. 12.

Tickets are $35 for the 5 p.m. event at Harbinger Winery, 2358 W. Highway 101. Admission includes dinner and beverages.

Sequim Health &Rehabilitation and Crestwood Health &Rehabilitation once again will be the presenting sponsors.

Proceeds will be used to purchase equipment for the OMC Pediatric Clinic.

The party will feature a rib cook-off between local physicians and other medical providers, Harbinger wines, local brews and several games in which attendees can win prizes.

Tickets can be obtained at hogwild-omcf.brownpaper tickets.com or by calling 360-417-7144.

“Sequim Health &Rehabilitation and Crestwood Health &Rehabilitation are two of our largest sponsors and donors,” said OMC Foundation President Jim Jones. “They have stepped forward significantly to help better the lives of patients at Olympic Medical Center.”

“Since we are both in the health care business, we are pleased to partner with the foundation and OMC,” said Sequim Health &Rehab administrator Ed Ebling. “We have sponsored and donated to the foundation for several years now, and we are pleased to be a part of the effort to make our local medical center a great rural center.”

“We appreciate the opportunity to make a difference,” said Crestwood Health &Rehabilitation administrator Jason Segar.

The two facilities also will continue to be the presenting sponsor of Festival of Trees and be involved in several other foundation events, including Harvest of Hope, which benefits the OMC Cancer Center, and the Red, Set, Go Heart Luncheon, which benefits cardiac services at the hospital.
