  • Piano Man Gala held on November 19, 2016

    The Piano Man was our main fundraiser in 2016 raising close to $13,000, our largest fundraiser to date.

    211 Tickets were sold, a fabulous meal was prepared by Lila and Kim from Vancouver Island University and entertainment was provided by Ryan Langevin impersonating Billy Joel and Elton John.   The community at large provided amazing items for our silent and live auction.   Our MC and auctioneer for the evening was Cole Renner, from the Vancouver Canucks organization, who did a fabulous job.

    Wanitta Ranson pulled out all the stops for our decorating and as a result the Lighthouse Community Hall looked amazing.

    To our volunteers a huge thank you.   We could not do it without you.

    Our next gala is scheduled for November 18, 2017.
