Thanks to the efforts of the entire Verona and area community Saturday night’s fundraising dance, “A Celebration of Strength” for 2-year-old Kylie Babcock and her family, mom and dad, Peter and Vicki and sister Taylor at the Verona Lions Hall was a resounding success.

The $10 ticket evening included a silent auction food and beverages, a raffle and great musical entertainment local musicians Alex Garofalo, and bands Rock Bottom and Rick Smith and Free Beer. Guests also enjoyed a late night buffet.
Thanks to Mrs. Doutre’s class at Prince Charles Public School who donated their hand made Christmas crafts. Many thanks from the orgaizers to everyone who helped out and donated items for the event.
