Mardi Gras
Mardi Gras serves gourmet foods from more than 30 of the San Gabriel Valley’s
most popular restaurants, as well as offering libations, a festive parade,
crazy costumes, dancing, live music, an exciting silent auction, and mysterious
raffle boxes all for a great cause. The event also features dancing to
the 80'z All-Stars live band, and the traditional Mardi Gras parade
led by the Arcadia High School pep band.
We were privileged to honor Dr. John and Margaret Quigley as “King
and Queen of Mardi Gras 2018” for their long-time dedication to
Methodist Hospital. Thank you to event co-chairs Dr. Stephen & Patty
Soldo and Sherri Taylor.
Mardi Gras 2018 raised over $145,000 which will go toward the creation
of an orthopaedic-specific unit at Methodist Hospital – our
Joint & Spine Pavilion, to be staffed by specially-trained nurses and therapists, who will provide
a wellness-based approach to care and recovery.
Currently, physicians at Methodist Hospital provide a full range of orthopaedic
care, including total joint replacement, spine surgery, fracture care,
and physical rehabilitation. Establishment of our Joint & Spine Pavilion
will enable Methodist Hospital to provide customized orthopaedic care
for a life more active.

held on Tuesday, March 5th. For more information call Methodist Hospital Foundation at (626) 898-8888 or email
