Thank you! May 3rd was a big success

What a day it was on May 3rd! We had a wonderful turnout in the afternoon even though there was beautiful weather beckoning folks to play outdoors. In the evening, we had a lovely audience who braved the rain and thoroughly enjoyed the show.

When we add up the proceeds from the afternoon event, the evening concert, plus a few individual donations received already, we have collected just over $1,700!! Thank you all for your support! This is truly a grassroots partnership that we have with St. Albert Le Grand, and it works because of the generosity of all of the contributors, and the confidence that you have in the project. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

We will report back at the beginning of July again once we receive a few other donations that have been pledged.

We'd like to thank the Gladstone Hotel for their support of our fundraiser for the past five years. And of course we would like to thank all of the artists who generously gave their talents on the 3rd. Here is where you can find them:
