BBQ & Blue Jeans is a fundraising event held each year by the DCH Foundation to benefit the DCH Help & Hope Patient Assistance Fund.


The event was canceled last year due to the pandemic but plans are in place for 2021 but they'll be doing things a little differently! They're inviting you to join them for a COVID-19 friendly version of the event. Everything will be safely handled to ensure the protection of everyone involved.
