WARWICK, N.Y. (December 17, 2024) – The holiday season in Warwick was marked by joy and generosity as more than 400 guests joined the Winding Through Warwick holiday house tour on Saturday, December 7th. Attendees were treated to festive holiday decorations at seven stunning homes throughout Warwick. This year’s event raised nearly $54,000 through ticket sales, sponsorships, and a raffle. Proceeds from the event directly benefit St. Anthony Community Hospital, located in the heart of Warwick.

“This annual event truly highlights the generosity and community spirit of Warwick,” said Barbara Sullivan, who served as chairperson of the event. “We are incredibly grateful to the homeowners, sponsors, volunteers, and everyone who contributed to making this day a success. The funds raised will make a lasting impact on the care and services provided at St. Anthony Community Hospital.”

The popular “tricky tray” raffle, which featured 46 baskets generously donated by foundation board members, St. Anthony Community Hospital staff, and local businesses, including Fox & Bear Lodge, The Candy Apple Shop, Frazzleberries, Hip & Chic, and many more, was a highlight of the event. For the first time this year, the tricky tray opened the night before the tour, welcoming community members to preview and participate in the raffle at the Warwick Senior Center.
