During the entertainment portion of the evening, guests will take a stroll down memory lane returning to the 1980s, a decade known for its glamour and glitz, when Nigel Sloan of Evenfest looks back to 1984 and beyond through a light-hearted and quick-witted game of Grimsby Wheel of fortune.

The silent auction and live auction conclude the evening.

This year’s live auction features a signed Yvon Cournoyer jersey with certificate of authenticity, a signed Martin Brodeur jersey with certificate of authenticity, one night’s stay in a luxury suite at the Casablanca Winery Inn including dinner and breakfast for tow, dinner at a private historic home, a catered meal cooked at your home personal chef James Cuttriss of “The Heat is On Catering” and an original sculpture by Beamsville artist Floyd Elzinga.
