There are also volunteer opportunities available this weekend that come along with free Boat Show passes.
Your Impact at Hospice Cup 2025
Our mission is to raise funds for hospice care but we also want to raise awareness about the impact of this year’s record donations. Here’s what our non-profit hospice partners can use the funds that were raised at the 2025 Hospice Cup:
- A full day of care for an uninsured patient every day for the next 2-1/2 years
- 1,500 social care and chaplain visits
- More than 2,000 physician visits
- 2,500 berevement counseling sessions for family members
Pretty remarkable! And there are still opportunities to give. We hope you will consider a follow up gift or even a first-time gift if you haven’t yet had an opportunitiy to make a donation. Join us in making a difference, becoming a part of something great, and celebrating the gift of hospice.

A Note of Thanks from The Lifecare Institute
On behalf of the Luminis Health Gilchrist Lifecare Institute hospice team, thank you to all donors and boats for your generosity and for including us in this year’s Hospice Cup. Your support allows us to provide hospice and palliative care to anyone in need, regardless of their ability to pay. Sharing this day together on the water reminded us of the caring community that makes our work possible and we’re truly grateful to be part of this meaningful tradition.
