The Embers restaurant at 2305 Philadelphia Ave. is hosting the party on Thursday, November 8 from 5:30 – 8:30 p.m. Admission is $50 and includes beer tastings by local craft breweries, small plates from local restaurants, live music by Blake Haley, and a Chinese auction.

The event is spearheaded by local leaders Cole Taustin, owner of The Embers/Blu, and Kellie Meehan, of Mann Properties. Their goal is to create awareness of Coastal Hospice and the importance of philanthropy among their peers. The planning committee for this growing event includes Colleen Donovan Brown, Amanda Buckley, Jennifer Hallon, Jessica Osborn, and Joe Wilson.

The Macky & Pam Stansell House at Coastal Hospice at the Ocean will be a hospice residence and community outreach center in Worcester County. It will be a home for hospice patients who lack an able caregiver. It will also be the site for community-based palliative care, counseling, grief support, and community wellness programs.
