An unforgettable evening

The ninth annual Valentine's Day ball benefiting the West Island Palliative Care Residence on Feb. 8 was once again a great success. Attended by about 500 well-dressed guests, the event, which took place at the Chateau Vaudreuil raised $220,000 for the residence. Fine cuisine, fantastic music by Oliver Jones, and a silent auction made the evening an event to remember. The residence must raise $1 million every year to keep running.
