As part of our community involvement initiatives and our partnership with the Ottawa Senators, it was a great pleasure for our executive staff member, Natalie Beauchamp to join some of her acquaintances at the 2014 Ferguslea Senators Soirée – the premiere funding event of the Ottawa Senators Foundation, this past Saturday January 25, 2014.
More than 700 guests along with the Ottawa Senators players, coaches, staff and management attended this fabulously posh event. The evening consisted of a cocktail reception, dinner, games, performances and plenty of auction items. Top auction items raised thousands of dollars, including a home visit and cooked meal by Ottawa Senators players; Clarke MacArthur, Erik Karlsson, Zack Smith, Marc Methot, Kyle Turris and Bobby Ryan which sold for an unprecedented $50,000!
At the end of the night $327,500 was raised in support of children and youth in the National Capital Region. Another amazing event we were honoured to be a part of.
