in Hampstead, NC.

This event was sponsored by the
Coast Association of Health Underwriters.

About 125 people attended the 12th Annual Golf Tournament held at the Castle Bay Golf Course in Hampstead, NC, sponsored by the Coastal Association of Health Underwriters.     Tileston Health Clinic was the recipient of the proceeds. 

This event was successful because of the efforts of many people.  In particular,  

·      Charlie MacGrooders Restaurant  of Leland provided lunch for all before the tournament began.  The tasty food fortified the players for the game.

·       While on the course Golfers were treated to a variety of cool beverages supplied by
RA Jeffreys Distributing Co.  The drinks were much appreciated as it was a very hot afternoon.

·        At the end of the tournament, dinner was served, compliments of UnitedHealthcare.  This gave players a time to relax and unwind with good conversations and fellowship.

·         Staff and Volunteers worked together behind the scenes to make sure the players’ needs were met.  Without them, the afternoon would have been difficult.

A Music Event...
Took Place
October 11, 2009
at the Beautiful, Historic
St. Paul's Episcopal Church
16 N. 16th Street

The Cape Fear Chamber Players

  • Music filled the air  October 11th.  A performance by the Cape Fear Chamber Players (CFCP) was presented as a benefit concert for the Tileston Health Clinic.   Part of the  Music@St. Paul's Concert Series, the Cape Fear Chamber Players performed in one of Wilmington's best venues for chamber music.  The acoustics were outstanding; the music mesmerized the audience.  
    • Beverly Andrews, Concert Master for the Wilmington Symphony Orchestra and founding member of the CFCP, engrossed the audience on a Germunder violin made in 1895.  This particular violin was featured in the Library of Congress in Washington, DC.
    • Kathy Meyer was on a cello made in 1863 in Lyons, France by H.C.Silvestre.  Ms Meyer is the principal cellist of the Wilmington Symphony Orchester and a cofounder of the CFCP.   
    • Domonique Launey was at the piano, assisted by her beautiful daughter who diligently turned the pages of the music sheets.  Ms. Launey is an international performer who has performed in the US, Jamaica, France, and Belgium

Although admission to the concert was FREE, the audience generously donated a sum of $840 to the Tileston Health Clinic!  

Dr Larry Cook, Director of Music at St Paul's Church, was pleased with the attendance and was delighted to present David Howard, Executive Director at Tileston, the proceeds from the event.

Tileston Health Clinic is grateful to all participants for their TIME, TALENTS, and TREASURES.  We thank the parishioners of St Paul's Church, the Director of Music, the talented musicians for their generosity.  

We especially thank the audience who gave so generously.  Their donations will be used to support the Medicine Fund.


To Our Volunteers and Supporters...

With your help, we can continue our services to the underserved of our community.  We appreciate all that you have done, for without your of time, talents, and treasures, the Tileston Health Clinic could not and would not exist!
