Baskets with Panache!Baskets with Panache! - Wednesday, June 16, 2010, Ottawa

Fundraising event

Wednesday, June 16, 2010

The Canada Agriculture Museum is hosting an exciting fundraising event called Baskets with Panache! on Wednesday, June 16, 2010 from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. at the Museum. All proceeds from Baskets with Panache! will enable children with financial challenges in our community to attend the Museum's school programs and summer day camps and have an unforgettable hands-on farm experience. The funds will be used to pay for transportation costs, program fees and other supplies or equipment to enhance the children's visit.

Baskets with Panache! is a unique fundraising event where gift baskets created by local community leaders will be auctioned. These baskets have "Panache" because many will create a basket reflecting his or her own personality and interests, containing items unique to their individuality and organization.

The June 16 evening kicks off with an eclectic blend of blues and jazz with a bit of Dixieland performed by The Saints 'N' Sinners and features hors-d'oeuvres, seasonal Canadian foods and beverages by Thyme & Again Creative Catering that will be sure to delight the senses. There will be a live auction of baskets from community leaders, as well as a silent auction of other donated items conducted by Ottawa's own Stuntman Stu.
