The Rockbridge Area Health Center will host the 17th annual Bull & Oyster Fest at the Virginia Horse Center on Saturday, April 5, 2025, from 1 pm – 5 pm. This event attracted over 800 people in 2024 for an afternoon of bluegrass music, delicious barbeque, oysters, and loads of fun.
The primary source of funding for this event is derived from sponsors. Your goodwill enables our community health center to continue to provide over $1 million of uncompensated medical, dental, and behavioral healthcare services annually to underserved members of Rockbridge County and the surrounding areas.
Rockbridge Area Health Center has served a record number of medical and behavioral patients at three locations and throughout the county in a mobile unit, and dental services at two locations and in a mobile unit.
Many of our patients are patients requiring financial assistance. Proceeds from the Bull & Oyster Fest help us provide health care services for our underserved patients and support the mission of the Rockbridge Area Health Center to promote and provide access to comprehensive, high-quality, and affordable healthcare to improve the health and well-being of the greater community.
