We Love Fundraising!

Our 24th Annual Valentine's Ball was held on Saturday, February 12 at the Ellerslie Legion Home #22.  We had a wonderful crowd who danced the night away to the great music from Old Habits.  Our community once again provided great support through buying 141 dance tickets, hundreds of raffle tickets and providing lunch for the evening.  We raised $2,210 for the hospital and this money has already been spent on the redecoration of the solarium.  Special thanks to all the businesses and individuals who donated raffle and door prizes.  The support for our great hospital remains so strong.

Our auxiliary members have also been raising some money for our provincial association, the PEIAHA.  We have been filling a "Wish Jar" at our meetings and it looks as though we are going to be having a lot of wishes fulfilled at the rate we are going!  Here's one of our Valentine's Dance helpers showing off our efforts:
