Edmonton Fundraiser

We had a great night at the Edmonton Fundraiser.  Our hosts, Riverwest, treated us with excellent service.  Gery Schubert served us again, this time as Don Cherry as we had Hockey Night in Evergreen!  The evening started off with the singing of O Canada.  Andrew Baerg our board chair led us by saying grace and then it was time for the first period face off.




Here's Don and Ron starting the evening off.

Singing O Canada

 

The food committee at Riverwest simply out did themselves.  Cheri Andres and her crew put on a great spread that was more than enough.  My favourite was the cupcakes for dessert.  (I had an Oreo one!)  Check out the specially made cup cake holders built just for us!







Josh one of our seasonal staff was referee for night.


Dennis Wiens, pastor at Sunrise spent time in the penalty box courtesy of his son!



 Some sort of strange pool noodle game?  Not sure what pool noodles have to do with ice?

The rest of the evening was filled with crazy games, live and silent auctions and the icing on the cake was Don's famous head stand!



We grossed approx. $10,000 for our Cabin Fever project Saturday night.  We're expecting a few more donations to come in and once we've deducted our cost we will let you know the final tally.

Thanks again Riverwest for your service and to all who came out and made our fundraiser a great evening.



The Grand Finale.  Frozen River Dance.  Note our board member Bob Thiessen is not quite in step!
