Hospice advocates want to fill a gap in the health care system by filling a circus tent.
Agrace Hospice will hold its second annual Night at the Circus fundraiser Aug. 4 at Circus World. Proceeds will go to the nonprofit’s charity care fund.
Agrace development manager Tracy Buglass said the Care for All fund covered $750,000 in end-of-life services last year in southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois. This included help for 20 Baraboo patients.

Many hairstylists would consider it a day of work, but those who spend Thursday mornings at Agrace HospiceCare in Fitchburg think it’s a day of magic.
“I love it,” Cost Cutters volunteer Angela McIntosh said. “It’s definitely the highlight of my week to come in.”
“This is my day off every week,” volunteer Beth Anderson said.
The volunteers wash, blow-dry and curl patients’ hair, all before the clock strikes noon.
“It’s that comb and that hand, that magic hand,” a hospice patient named Mary said.
