Grand Bend Area Stay at Home Gala: May 2

Your OPAi Board has typically not promoted particular causes or events, however, we are living in unprecedented times that call for extraordinary measures. 

In this time of crisis, we decided to promote the opportunity to “Connect, unite and nourish our collective community”.  The Grand Bend Community Foundation and the Rotary Club of Grand Bend are holding an on-line Gala to raise funds to support the most vulnerable during the COVID-19 crisis.

Saturday, May 2nd, 2020 from 7-9 pm, on-line

Social distancing at its finest, this first-of-its-kind event will include all the familiar elements of the annual Grand Bend Gala: dinner (if you choose), game-changing speakers, entertainers, musicians, and much more, all online.

The first hour, from 7 to 8 p.m. will feature local entertainers and speakers, while the second hour will be star-studded Canada-wide live stream. So, don your finest (and your bunny slippers), and join local emcees Paul Ciufo and our very own Oakwood Park’s Jennifer Mossop for a night of togetherness, apart.
