The Cambrian Foundation is hosting a
fundraising dinner on March 4, which will enable guests to
mingle with legendary NHL goaltenders Johnny "The China Wall"
Bower, Tony "Tony O" Esposito, Glenn "Chico" Resch, Bernard
"Bernie" Parent, and hometown hero, Edward "Fast Eddie"
Giacomin.
Proceeds from the event will be matched,
dollar-for-dollar, by the Province of Ontario's Student
Opportunity Trust Fund II (OSOTF) and will be used to create a
permanent bursary endowment. Each year, the interest portion of
this investment will be awarded to deserving students attending
Cambrian College.
Last year, legendary Maple Leafs players
Darryl Sittler, Tiger Williams, Wendel Clark, and Gary Leeman
helped raise over $20,000. With OSOTF's contributions that
number jumped to over $40,000.
Ticket prices (including gourmet dinner) are
$125 for a single ticket and $1,000 for a table of eight. The
evening kicks off at 6 pm with cocktails and dinner at 7 pm at
the Walter Curlook Heritage Ballroom at the Cambrian Foundation
on Frood Road.
For additional information and tickets, phone
