The 4th annual Subaru of Orillia Snow Day has Raised over $5,000 for Orillia Soldiers’ Memorial Hospital.
The event was held at the Heights of Horseshoe back in March, when approximately 200 skiers and snowboarders came out to support the hospital.
Ticket sales, a silent auction and donations from attendees helped bring the total money raised from the day to $5,400, which will go towards the areas of greatest need at Soldiers’.
The partnership with Subaru of Orillia is an important one for the Foundation explained Lisa Wanamaker, OSMH Foundation Development Officer. “Mark Shivers and Robert Stein have worked with us over the past few years to grow this event into the success it is today,” she said. “Their support means so much to us and to the community and we are lucky to have such an incredible Orillia Subaru team on our side.”
Supporting the Hospital has been a primary focus for Subaru of Orillia explained Mark Shivers, the dealership’s general manager. “We’ve been really eager to build our partnership with the Hospital as we are well aware of the important role it plays in our community,” he said. “That has never been clearer than it is now during this health crisis. We are so fortunate to have had such a wonderful day on the slopes to celebrate and we owe a huge thank you to everyone who participated and to the local businesses who contributed to our success.”
Subaru of Orillia is also a major sponsor of Charlee’s Run, a run/walk for pregnancy and infant loss awareness in support of Soldiers’, taking place virtually this year on Saturday, May 9.
