Public Can Help Plan FCMC’s 2026 Community Fundraiser

The first-ever black tie fundraising gala hosted by Floyd County Medical Center (FCMC) in March also celebrated the hospital’s 60th anniversary in Charles City.

That’s Makenzie McNeill, FCMC director of marketing, who says they’re enlisting extra help in planning their next event.

Possible themes with the public survey include casino night, masquerade ball, and Kentucky Derby. There’s also an “other” option to submit your own idea. The survey can be accessed at www.fcmc.us.com and is open through July 15th.

McNeill says FCMC is also soliciting RFPs (request for proposal) for catering and photography services to partner with for the 2026 fundraiser. Interested vendors are asked to contact McNeill by July 31st.
