Salah Foundation Children’s Hospital hosted a drive-thru pumpkin patch on October 17, 2020. Over 7,000 people registered for the family-fun event that was held simultaneously at Broward Health Medical Center and Broward Health Coral Springs. Families drove through the music-filled pumpkin patch and were given a free pumpkin and treat bags for kids.
“We knew families were not going to be able to go to a traditional fall festival during this pandemic and we wanted to recreate that experience here at Salah Foundation Children’s Hospital with a drive-thru pumpkin patch,” said Heather Havericak, CEO, Broward Health Medical Center.
“Our hospital’s goal is to provide high-quality care for the children in our community,” said Jared Smith, CEO at Broward Health Coral Springs. “We also wanted to give back to our neighborhoods by providing this family-focused event.”
