It’s time to purchase your butterflies!
The 13th Annual Butterfly Release is coming soon! We will be honored to host you and your family and be part of the magic as you release butterflies in honor or memory of loved ones.
Butterflies must be pre-ordered. The last day to order is May 10.
Order yours today!
The Butterfly Releases, held on three dates in June, are open to the public and all are welcome.
Thursday, June 20 from 3-6pm, Cathedral of the Pines, Rindge
Friday, June 21 from 10am-1pm, Butterfly Park, Keene
Saturday, June 22 from 10am-1pm, Butterfly Park, Keene
All events will feature experiences that make HCS Hospice distinct – live music provided by our talented Hospice musicians, chair massages provided by Deep Roots Massage and Mary Beth Given, LMT, and onsite presence of our chaplains and bereavement support staff.
The Thursday and Friday events will be reflective and serene events, as in years past. On Saturday June 22, HCS is holding some “extra space” for families with children. While all are welcome to participate in each Butterfly Release event, our Saturday event will include additional special activities for children and we hope will have a sunny and celebratory atmosphere.
Names of the commemorated will be listed in the event program. For friends and families from afar, HCS staff would be honored to serve you by releasing a butterfly in your loved one’s name.
