The 45th annual Party for the Disabled was held Feb. 13 at Trinity United Church during Vernon Winter Carnival. The Vernon Jubilee Hospital Auxiliary would like to sincerely thank the following people for helping to make the party such a roaring success for the more than 200 guests and dignitaries attending.
The Chilly Creakers provided the much-loved music for the dancing enjoyed by all. They never sat down.
The masters of ceremony, Lee Dinwoodie and Kevin Rothwell, kept the guests entertained all afternoon giving out beautifully dressed Teddy bears, which had been generously donated by Dora Schultz.
We would like to thank Buy Low Foods and Tim Hortons for supplying all of the food enjoyed by all.
We would also like to thank Queen Silver Star and Princess Silver Star for attending. Having royalty attend is always exciting for our guests. The Carnival Cops, jopo, jopette, and Mr. Fix, we commend you for your willing co-operation and ready interaction with our special guests. And last but not least, we would like to recognize for their assistance, the youth health care volunteers, Gary Wendt and all of the auxiliary members who looked after the coat check, the decorating, making cookies and sandwiches and hosting.
This is one of the auxiliary’s favourite projects and we look forward to putting on this party for our special guests every year.
May Correale, VJH Auxiliary
