Empire Auctions Toronto - $207,000 Raised for Sick Kids Hospital!

I was honoured to be involved this year with the
3rd Annual Transglobe Charity Golf Classic, held on Tuesday, June 24th at the
beautiful Eagles Nest Golf Club in Maple, Ontario, just north of Toronto. The
event included golf, dinner and entertainment and was very well attended. The
evening included live and silent auctions and I was asked to conduct the live
auction component, consisting of select sports memorabilia, artwork and vacation
package items. In keeping with the sports theme of the evening, attending and
supporting the event were some of Canada's most legendary past and present
athletes, both in the professional and olympic spheres, including (among others)
Toronto Blue Jays World Series winner Joe Carter, gold medal champion Olympic
sprinter Donovan Bailey, and Marnie McBean, Olympic gold medal rowing
champion. It was a thrill for me to meet and be photographed with these legends,
and to help out in such an important cause. In all, $207,000 was raised that
evening, in support of the Cardiac Kids Program at Sick Kids
Hospital.
