PENDLETON — CHI St. Anthony Hospital is putting on its party hats in celebration of the 10th anniversary of moving to its new facility.

The public is invited to Cheers to 10 Years on Dec. 20, 5-7 p.m. at 2801 St. Anthony Way, Pendleton. The celebration includes drinks and hors d’oeuvres.

According to a Dec. 20, 2013, story in the East Oregonian, ambulances, sans lights and sirens, transported patients to the new $70 million facility. Project Manager Joe Kunkel said the transition was made without a hitch — just before snow began to fall.

Marketing Director Emily Smith said the community is invited to drop in during the event to enter a chance to win a door prize. For more information, contact Smith at 541-278-2627 or emilysmith@chiwest.com.
