Spring Thaw Gala January 23, 2007
The annual fundraising event for the Abbeyfield House Society of High River, the Spring Thaw Gala, was held on March 31, 2007 at the High River Memorial Centre. Approximately 120 guests attended the dinner and dance gala and enjoyed the evening’s activities comprising both a silent and a live auction, presentation of certificates of sponsorship and dancing to Twice Nightly, a local dance band..
Darrel Janz of AM 1140 and Calgary CTV, did an admirable job of emceeing the gala. The live auction with auctioneer Eldon Couey was enthusiastically supported and provided many amusing incidents. The lively crowd rounded out the evening with dancing to the eclectic music of Twice Nightly.
This successful event helped the Abbeyfield Society of High River top up their building fund to the point where construction of Abbeyfield House can soon begin.
