To date, the shows have raised over $10,000.00 for the local MS Society. This year, LCVI, QECVI and LaSalle are working with LSCE to achieve a goal of $10,000 in one night for the MS Society!!!

Local businesses are helping out with donations of finger food, door prizes and silent auction items. We also appreciate the support of our corporate sponsors, Len Corcoran Excavating Ltd and Hartington Equipment, who are generously donating funds to cover the cost of renting the Olympic Harbour. Local "celebrity" servers will be helping us out serving "mocktails" and food to our patrons.

Kevin Davison, a Harrowsmith resident who has lived with MS for over 20 years, is our MS spokesman for the show.
