Billings Clinic Classic

In light of the recent increase in COVID-19 in our community, the Billings Clinic Foundation is announcing the cancellation of the 2021 Billings Clinic Classic street party, which was planned for August 28 in downtown Billings.

This year’s Classic is dedicated to raising funds in a $3.5 million campaign to build a new and improved Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) to take care of Billings Clinic’s tiniest patients and their families, and the Billings Clinic Foundation continues to raise funds for this important cause.

“Canceling the street party was the last thing we wanted to do, but it’s the best decision we can make in the current environment,” said Amberly Pahut, Billings Clinic Foundation Senior Director of Philanthropy. “We made this decision as a team with guidance from Billings Clinic’s infectious disease experts who have been working so hard to inform and protect our community. We’re continuing our campaign to support the new NICU, and we hope the community will join us in that support.” 

Classic street party ticketholders can choose to donate the ticket cost toward supporting the NICU project, or receive a full refund.  The scheduled golf tournaments, where physical distancing is much more achievable, will continue as planned, along with the annual raffle and silent auction, which will be held online.

“We strongly encourage everyone to take all of the recommended steps to get through this COVID pandemic – masking, physical distancing and hand washing – and get vaccinated if eligible, so that we can come back next year with another amazing Classic event,” Pahut said.
