Moving Mountains for Marc

Event date: This event has already passed.

Vail Valley Charitable Fund and Family “Moving Mountains for Marc”

Family and friends will come together on Friday, May 5, 2023, at the Eagle-Vail Pavilion from 5 pm to 9 pm to raise funds for Dr. Marc Peck and his wife, Judy.

Dr. Peck has served the Eagle County community for over three decades. Even when he was diagnosed with cancer, he continued to work full-time for years. His health issues caused him to decrease his practice hours to part-time, and now, with an additional diagnosis of ALS, he has been forced to stop working altogether. His wife, Judy, can no longer work as she is a full-time caregiver. The medical and other expenses are overwhelming. Marc and Judy’s dedication to medicine and their patients has endeared them to countless individuals and families. They have served the valley tirelessly.

This fundraiser will include incredible live music, heavy appetizers, two drinks per person, and a fabulous silent auction, all donated by generous friends of the Vail Valley Charitable Fund and the Peck Family. Please plan for a suggested donation of $35 per person. Proceeds earned will help Marc and Judy maintain his full-time care in their home for as long as possible by helping to meet their living expenses. Join us for Moving Mountains for Marc on May 5, 2023, to rally around Marc and Judy. They’ve cared for us; now it’s time we care for them.
