The Marshall University Joan C. Edwards School of Medicine<\/a> most unique outdoor dining experience, Standing Out in Our Field, on Saturday, Aug. 26, at the Barboursville Soccer Complex.<\/p>\n

The annual medical student scholarship fundraiser draws hundreds for a picturesque, fun-filled evening under the stars. This year\u2019s event, presented by Dean\u2019s Circle Sponsor Mountain Health Network, will feature a \u201cMargaritaville\u201d theme and serve up gourmet twists on Caribbean favorites like volcano nachos, cheeseburger in paradise sliders, Key West grilled mahi, island spiced grill beef tournedos and mango jerk shrimp. The event begins with a reception at 6 p.m., followed by dinner & dancing from 7 to 11 p.m., featuring music by the band, Santa Cruz.<\/p>\n

\u201cStanding Out In Our Field has become the annual go-to event for those who enjoy a laid-back, relaxing event for a good cause,\u201d said Linda S. Holmes, director of development and alumni affairs at the medical school. \u201cUnder the tent, guests will be transported to \u2018Margaritaville\u2019 for a fun-filled evening with plenty of ambiance, amazingfood and music to go around.\u201d<\/p>\n

Proceeds from the annual event go to provide much-needed support for medical student scholarships. This year, event chairs, Dr. Rob (Class of 1998) and Suzanne Cure, have set a goal to raise $100,000 for the school\u2019s scholarship endowment.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a graduate of the School of Medicine, I know firsthand how important scholarships are for reducing medical school debt,\u201d Dr. Rob Cure said. \u201cThis is not your average fundraising event. It\u2019s so much fun and medical students are engaged as volunteers and servers for the event, taking an active role in helping raise the scholarship dollars that benefit them!\u201d<\/p>\n
