This year’s Pink Party, in support of the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation, was held on Friday, April 11, 2014 at the Castlefield Event Theatre. Now in it’s fifth year, the event continues to get bigger and better. Event director Paul Etherington, who also organizes the highly successful Motionball gala ), promised a fun time to be had by all, with the talent and performances lined up for the night.
It was my second time at the Curve Ball gala and I remembered why it was one of my favourite events of 2013. Taking place on the baseball turf on the Rogers Centre with more than 1,000 VIP guests, it’s a fun one-of-a-kind baseball themed gala where guests get to mingle and rub shoulders with star athletes and alumni from the Toronto Blue Jays.
The 19th annual Starlight Gala took place at the Fairmont Royal York Hotel once again last Saturday, April 5, 2014 with the interesting theme of “London Calling”, named after UK’s punk rock band, The Clash. The evening raised $500,000 to fund Starlight’s programs goal of “bringing joy to children who need it”.
