A number of acts take the stage in support of the 100 Mile District Hospice Palliative Care Society on Oct. 19.
“The Cariboo’s Got Talent” will feature local musicians, dancers and storytellers.
The event starts at 2 p.m. at Martin Exeter Hall in 100 Mile House.
“Everyone in the district knows that ‘The Cariboo’s Got Talent’,” says organizer Caroline Sharpe.
“It will be an afternoon for the whole family and will feature the 100 Mile Community Band, the Polynesian Dance Studio, South Cariboo Rhythmic Gymnastics team, Leslie Ross and Jason Ruscheinsky, the bluegrass band Front Porch and storytelling.”
Admission is by donation and “every cent of it is going to the work of hospice.”
“We’re hoping we get a full hall,” Sharpe says, adding a similar event was “quite a success” five years ago.
“We thought it would be nice to do one again. Of course, most of the talent has changed. There are so many talented people in 100 Mile.”

The monies collected will be used to purchase new equipment for the use and comfort of clients.
