Everyone is encouraged to bring in their feather pillows to the Pillow Perk to be cleaned, sanitized and given new ticking. Foam and Dacron pillows may also be renovated by this process. People are also encouraged to bring in their feather beds and have them made into new pillows.
Everyone is instructed to enter the hospital through the lower level loading dock entrance and to have their pillows in plastic bags marked with their name when they drop them off. Directional signage will be located on the street right outside that door.
Masquerade Sales
The Auxiliary is also holding its annual Masquerade jewelry and accessories sale that same day as well. Masquerade is a company that hosts these sales only at hospitals throughout the country. They will be visiting Veterans Memorial Hospital from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday, October 24. The hours were extended again this year to 6 p.m. to accommodate those working.
Numerous tables of jewelry, scarves, hair accessories, leggings, lunch bags, organizers, flashlights, mittens, billfolds, hats, etc., will be on display throughout the Large Conference Room on lower level of the hospital. Each item is sold for just $5. This is a great opportunity to find many unique stocking stuffers at a very reasonable cost in time for the holidays.

Parking for both the Pillow Perk and Masquerade sales will be available on the east side of the hospital, along the golf course. It is asked that everyone enter through the lower level entrances and not the main hospital entrance for these events.
