The AnMed Health Foundation is presenting the 16th annual Camellia Ball on Saturday, Feb. 6 at 8 p.m. at the Civic Center of Anderson, featuring entertainment from the popular Swinging Medallions band.  This black-tie gala benefits the patients of AnMed Health Pediatric Therapy Works, a rehabilitation program for children and young adults with developmental disorders and delays.  

Tickets for the Camellia Ball are available for $250 per couple, $125 per person or $75 per person for those 35 or younger. Tickets can be purchased by calling the AnMed Health Foundation at (864) 512-6800 or visiting www.anmedhealth.org and clicking on the Camellia Ball icon on the home page.

Each year, Pediatric Therapy Works provides specialized physical, speech and occupational therapy to about 600 children who have developmental disorders and delays, such as cerebral palsy, spina bifida, Down’s syndrome, autism and other genetic neurological conditions. Through specialized therapy, these children can learn skills to optimize their independence – such as talking, feeding and dressing themselves, and expressing their feelings – and reach their full potential.
