Springing into Spring
On April 29th, over 500 people attended our Big Spring Auction.  A complimentary reception, followed by a full course prime rib dinner, loosened up the crowd.  Throughout the night, over 150 silent auction items were bid upon.  After dinner, the crowd was wowed by our first-class auctioneer presenting the 35-item live auction.  The night concluded with a dance to the sounds of Clam Chowder who kept the crowd hopping into the wee hours of the morning.  A great time was had by all and comments from patrons indicate that this was the best Big Spring Auction yet!

Proceeds from this annual event go to the Progress Centre for Early Intervention.

Many thanks to our presenting sponsors, Sobeys and ATV/CTV, as well as our corporate sponsors, Touch of Gold, SunLife Financial, and Allura Communications.
