ABBOTSFORD — Fraser Valley Health Care Foundation’s Grand Gala, “Under the Big Top,” presented by Snowcrest Foods, emerged as a dazzling spectacle that captured the spirit of the circus on Friday, November 17 in Abbotsford. The fundraiser generated over $118,000 towards the ongoing efforts of the foundation to fund essential equipment at Fraser Valley hospitals.
The night kicked off with the enchanting performances of a fire juggler, stilt walker, and an awe-inspiring contortionist, setting the tone for an unforgettable evening in our lavishly adorned ballroom.
Amidst the splendor, guests indulged in carnival revelry, engaging in games such as the high striker, clowning around, bushel basket toss, and the whimsical ring toss. Rocky Mountain Chocolate in Harrison Hot Springs added a sweet touch, offering tantalizing caramel apples for purchase, sweetening the pot for the fundraising efforts.
A notable highlight was the ring toss, where skillful participants had the chance to win a bottle of wine by landing their ring on a full bottle—a heartfelt thank you to Blueridge Liquor Store for generously contributing to this lively game. Navigating the high striker proved to be a challenging yet exhilarating endeavor, with fierce competition ensuring a fabulous time for all attendees.
