An evening of honoring Legends & Leaders of Science & Medicine

This unique fundraising event celebrates the storied legacy of a once thriving and vital Gainsboro medical community. Black physicians, nurses, and First Responders were the pillars of the community. These healthcare professionals put caring for the community over everything. Their exceptional level of care and compassion was given to all regardless of the patient’s financial status. To this day many residents still have fond memories of the patient care their loved ones received at Burrell Memorial Hospital.

“Giving Them Their Flowers” Awards will be a night of remembrance, reminiscing, and reviving the spirit of genuine community care! Join Young Doctors Roanoke as we pay tribute to the legends of the past and leaders of today in the field of science and medicine. All proceeds from this event will go to sending our Young Docs to Summer Academy at the prestigious Howard University in June 2024.

A mansion. A murder. A mystery.

Murder and blackmail are on the menu when six mysterious guests assemble at Boddy Manor for a night they’ll never forget! Was it Mrs. Peacock in the study with the knife? Or was it Colonel Mustard in the library with the wrench? Based on the fan-favorite 1985 Paramount Pictures movie and inspired by the classic Hasbro board game, CLUE is the ultimate whodunit that will leave you dying of laughter and keep you guessing until the final twist.
