Join us for an extraordinary evening celebrating 50 years of community generosity, local leadership and transformative support for Bowmanville Hospital.
Since 1976, our community has come together to strengthen health care close to home. This year’s Harvest Ball honours that remarkable legacy while looking ahead to the next chapter of care in Clarington and Durham Region.
Guests will enjoy an elegant harvest-inspired experience featuring gourmet dining, live entertainment, dancing, exclusive live and silent auctions, casino-style games and meaningful opportunities to connect with community and business leaders.
More than a celebration, Harvest Ball directly supports the We Care, We Can campaign and the once-in-a-generation redevelopment of Lakeridge Health Bowmanville Hospital, including the advanced medical equipment and technology needed to care for our growing community.

Celebrate with Purpose
Provincial funding does not cover the full cost of hospital infrastructure and medical equipment. Community support is essential to helping ensure the new Bowmanville Hospital includes modern technology, purpose-built clinical spaces and the tools health-care teams need to provide safe, efficient and compassionate care.
By attending, sponsoring or supporting Harvest Ball, you are helping build a hospital ready for what comes next – and continuing a legacy of philanthropy that has strengthened local health care for 50 years.
