Make miracles happen with Operation Eyesight Dance

The Strathcona Little Big Band will be playing jazz and swing standards from the 40’s to fairly new stuff

Looking for something special to do on Saturday, March 3?

Here’s a chance to make miracles happen.

That’s what the Operation Eyesight Dance is all about. Each $30 raised will fund a cataract surgery for an individual in Africa.

And you can have a great time helping us do this.

This event will be held at the Eagles Hall in Campbellton.  The Ladies Auxiliary are preparing a three course Roast Pork Loin dinner with veggies, salad, dessert and coffee or tea.

For non-pork eaters, a vegetarian lasagna will be available.

Let them know if this is your preference as soon as possible.

The Strathcona Little Big Band will be playing.  They are a 17-piece ensemble that plays jazz and swing standards from the 40’s to fairly new stuff.

Great for dancing or just listening.  You don’t often get a chance to hear a big band these days.

You may have heard this group before at the Royal Coachman, Spirit Square of at fundraisers or private functions.

Come along and join in the fun – and make a difference in the world.
