Chairman
You know, as chairman of the Foundation and
in my work as a Certified Wealth Strategist – I
am always looking forward and thinking about
the future. However, it is important for all of
us to remember our past – not dwell in it mind
you – but to acknowledge it, take stock of it,
and realize that it is because of that past that
we are where we are today. People tend to do
this on milestone birthdays or anniversaries –
you know take a look at what we are and where
we are going and how we got to be who we
are today – determine if there is anything we
should change as we forge ahead.
The Barton Foundation is celebrating one of those monumental
anniversaries. It was 20 years ago that we were founded “...to assure, through
funding, the ability to maintain the highest level of health and wellness
care in the communities served by Barton Memorial Hospital facilities,
independent from outside control.”
We have delivered on that goal.
I think back on those 21 Charter members and think of all the work they had
ahead of them. They were literally starting with nothing and they charged
forward with purpose because they thought it was imperative that we keep
our hospital solvent and independent. Every year the Board of Trurstees has
this same conversation and we feel these original ideals are still important
and worth protecting. Our hospital is wonderful because it is our hospital. It
isn’t owned by some big outside conglomerate that tells us what equipment
we can or cannot buy – we have the power to decide what is important – and
that is awesome.
Over the years many have served on the Board of Trustees, many in the
community have given their time and money to help deliver on this mission.
And each of them helped to shape this organization into one that I am proud
to lead today. Twenty years is a long time - it is important to acknowledge,
thank, and pay tribute to those that have come before us and to say hey,
“nice work,” without you we wouldn’t be here. And, hey, maybe when we
are celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Foundation they will remember
us, too.

The Gala
Amidst twinkling lights in its new holiday timeframe, the Barton Foundation’s
2009 Gala was an extraordinary evening. More than 260 guests danced the
night away at the black-tie event celebrated at the MontBleu Resort Casino and
Spa. The elegant evening included a record-setting auction with $18, 675 raised
for the Barton Community Clinic alone and overall $54,000 in net proceeds
were raised to benefit the health of our community.
The evening featured a performance of holiday songs by South Lake Tahoe’s
2009 Spirit of Philanthropy Award recipient
award-winning Blue Ribbon Choir directed by Paul Kushner, stunning

dancing to the sounds of Hip Service.
“It’s wonderful to have so many in our community come out for this event and give
so generously, especially given the hard economic time we are experiencing. It is
very rewarding knowing that our efforts are making a much needed difference
in our community,” said Stacy Dingman, Chair of The Gala committee.

Festival of Trees
and Lights
The first annual Festival of Trees and Lights was held this past
December 3-6 at the MontBleu Resort
Casino and Spa. The family-oriented event
drew about 2,500 visitors who admired the
trees and holiday décor, shopped in the Auxiliary’s
gift shop, enjoyed a show on the Festival Stage, visited
with Santa or went to one of many fantastic events!
The Polar Express Event in particular was a highlight – with more than 540 kids
and parents wearing their pajamas, hopping on a bus, enjoying the antics and
cocoa at the Red Hut, and then making their way to the Festival. Once there,
guests enjoyed a reading of the Chris Van Allsburg’s The Polar Express by South
Tahoe’s own Bob Grant, a performance by the
local middle-school honor choir appropriately
named The Belles of Christmas, a visit with Santa
Claus, and a “first gift of Christmas.”
A big thank you to the Festival Committee, especially chair
Ann Jones, to the many volunteers, designers, seamstresses,
performers, schools, and everyone who helped to make this
event’s first year a great success. All in all the Festival was a
magical event and we are already planning for next year! If
you would like to get involved with the Festival please send us an email or give us a call in the
Foundation Office at festival@bartonhealth.org or 530-543-5909.

Celebrating 20Years of Service
This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Barton
Foundation. Since our inception in 1990, individuals,
community leaders, and businesses have partnered with
the Foundation to help Barton Health change and save
lives.
1990
By this time, the hospital was licensed for 81 beds, with
a staff of 59 physicians, 15 dentists, and 320 employees.
The hospital was focusing on technology, services, and
medical staff.

also enjoy the gallery provided by the Tahoe
Art League, located in the Snowflake Lobby.
This event continued until
2003 where it moved to the Heavenly Village and has
now evolved into this year’s first annual Festival of Trees
and Lights.
1998
The Ledbetter Play Area and Olson Play Room opened
at the Hospital giving children and families a home-like
environment in which to play, read, and relax.
2001
The Foundation gave $100,000 to Barton Health to fund
the new Emergency Room Helipad which facilitates care
flights outside the area in emergencies.
2002
Thanks in large part to Martha Barneson’s elk meatloaf,
the Barton Foundation received a very generous gift of
$231,000 from Bill and Ruth Hanan who owned a home
at the Lake. $131,000 of the funds went to support the
Healing Design project and the balance benefitted the
Foundation’s Endowment.
1995
The first annual Barton Foundation Golf Tournament
was held at Genoa Lakes Golf Course. The first years
were spearheaded by Trustee Martha Barneson with
support from Jeff Dingman, grandson of the late
Margaret Park Pruett. Since its inception the event has
raised more than $520,000 for Hospice services and the
Endowment Fund.
2004
Barton Foundation hosted its first annual Wine Tasting
Auction at Edgewood Tahoe. Past vintners include; Flora

given at the first annual Philanthropy Day Celebration on
November 5th.
The Family Birthing Center remodel is now complete,
after several years of planning and hard work. The
Family Birthing Center now offers single-room maternity
care in beautiful, freshly decorated rooms which include
“Healing Design”. The concept is to transform
the typical hospital environment from one of
white walls, hospital sights and sounds to one of
tranquility and healing. To date, the Foundation
has given the hospital more than $260,000 to
support healing design and it remains a “pet
project” of the Foundation today.
2005
The Foundation hosted its first ever
bereavement camp serving children between
7-14 years of age who have lost a loved one.
The two-day camp is free of charge and
includes a mix of fun and healing activities
for the kids to enjoy. In 2009, we hosted 24 campers and
we plan to make this an annual event.
2006
Ethel Mae Haldan donated $200,000 to fund the
Family Birthing Center. The remodel of this area of
the hospital includes private birthing suites and spa-like
environments. It will be completed in February 2010.
2007
The Foundation granted over $20,000 to Barton
Employees through its Friend in Need Program. Most of
these gifts were to victims of the Angora Fire.
2008
In 2008, the Ledbetter Family pledged $90,000 to develop
a garden adjacent to the new Rehabilitation Center
and Skilled Nursing Facility entrances. In memory of
William, Beverlee, and Erica Ledbetter the Healing
Garden includes a soothing waterfall, benches, paths,
and a mini-labyrinth to provide guests, staff, and patients
a scenic place to reflect.

Barton Health Grants to provide funding to programs

The Barton Foundation embarked on a campaign to
increase awareness about and raise funds for the Barton
Community Clinic. Proceeds from the Festival of Trees
and Lights, The Gala and donations from the American
Century Championship/NBC resulted in a total donation
of $45,000 to the Barton Community Clinic and the health
of the uninsured and under-insured in our area.
Philanthropy is defined as the “love of man kind” and
through the years, our community has shown through
its actions and support that we truly do care about our
neighbors. Almost 50 years ago, philanthropy was the
seed that inspired our hospital and which grew to become
Barton Health. This same passion to serve others is what
started the Barton Foundation and it still motivates us
today. We are deeply committed to improving the health
of the South Lake Tahoe area and to moving Barton
Health into the future. We are deeply indebted to the
businesses and individuals who have offered their support
throughout the years – they have truly made a difference in
the lives of so many people.
