EXCITING FUNDRAISING EVENT FOR QUEENS PLACE!
Liverpool: The Queens Place Recreation facility will benefit from a very exciting fundraiser in February! The brainchild of Kimberly Sinclair of SpinCount Music & Promotions and Karen Gilmour, Fundraising and Communications Officer for Queens Place, this event will bring some very high calibre entertainment
together in an effort to raise money for the new facility and also underscore the potential of future music events at Queens Place once complete. Kimberly and Kevin Sinclair (SpinCount) are very excited about the gala “we are happy to lend our expertise and support to the community for this event. Queens Place is key
to the development of Queens County from the perspective of business and financial growth and is equally important to future generations as a recreational and cultural center. We’re really looking forward to this once in a lifetime musical event.”
Hosted by Jonathan Crouse of Hank FM and CKBW, the concert & silent auction will take place at the Best Western Hotel and Conference Centre on Saturday, February, 26th 2011 and feature the musical talents of (local) Liseanne MacPherson’s Pony & the Pistols, double ECMA nominees Tim Chaisson and Morning Fold with headliner Charlie A’Court; Music Nova Scotia’s Entertainer of the year in 2009!
