Optimist raffle chair Ann Doyle was unable to attend the gala wrap-up but had remarked earlier crediting all the raffle ballyhoo accolades should be directed towards her strong committee members comprised of Optimist Carol Sargent, Ann Doyle, Miles Richardson, Petrina Perrineau, Susan Machnik, president Stephen Hambley and Jim Shaw for their dedicated hours in manning the Five Point Mall outpost. This group created dynastic sales. She continued offering special praise to a strong groupof “Friend Of Optimists” volunteers comprised of Neil Metcalfe, John Brooks and Kenny Ferrill who spearheaded outside sales.

Our next major fundraiser is scheduled for the Herongate Barn Dinner Theatre in Pickering on April 6th.
