Bonhomie Club


The History

In 1978, the Bonhomie (bon-om-mee) Club was established by the Howard Young Foundation and the volunteers of Howard Young Medical Center (HYMC) to raise support for the hospital. The name Bonhomie (of French origin) means “exuberant friendliness” and was chosen to represent the friendly nature of those living here. Since that time, many individuals, businesses, and foundations have contributed to support the outstanding healthcare and programs provided by HYMC and Aspirus Eagle River Hospital (AERH).
