October 15, 2008 - Annual Fundraising Dinner
The Annual Dinner on Wednesday, October 15, 2008 raised over $20,000 for Hospice Georgian Triangle. A rockin' dining room, a gourmet meal, hilarious entertainment, a cheque presentation from the Wasaga Beach Mayor, as well as the June Callwood Medal presentation made this a night well worth attending.
Loads of thanks go to our Fund-raising Chair Merle Gottlieb; her busy-bee roster of volunteers included Maggie Cowan, Marge Glenday, Barbara Pattison, Marlit Peirce, Bette Tkachuk and Jeanne Tsafaroff sure helped to make this unique night a unique and seamless event for all.
Lorraine Lowe graciously accepted the June Callwood Medal for Volunteer Excellence and spoke to the healing work her and her Bereavement Facilitators effect for grieving adults in the Georgian Triangle. Congratulations to this wonderful woman for all she does for others and for Hospice GT. Read More »
