Park Royal Hotel Christmas

Park Royal Hotel Christmas

IT's a tradition that most North Shore sing-songers can't live without. Every year, around Christmastime, West Vancouver's Park Royal Hotel hosts one of the best sing-song nights around. Usually, it features long time entertainer Michael Lawrence, who's known for his piano songs and impromtu hum-a-longs. However, this year, Johnny Leroux took over the reigns for three nights. Dec. 21, 22 and 23 were the nights to come on down and sing your heart out. But just when you thought there were no surprises left, the original piano man himself, namely Michael Lawrence, showed up in full Santa gear to join Johnny for a great night of Christmas song and fun. Just see who was there.

	Hey Rudolph? Well, no, that's really Larry McFadden and his wife Gail joining in for a chorus or two.
	Kathy and Peter Stivin are pub lovers from way back.
	He's the man with the golden voice and the magic guitar. Entertainer Johnny Leroux had the place rocking.
	Tyler Park and Carlyn Elliott can usually be found at the Keg restaurant, but this night, they took some time off for fun.
	Nick Biggar and Beckie Onofrey have plans to go snowshoeing over the holidays.
	Rob Rekrutiak (from left), Shireen Nathoo and Cynthia Morris grew up here on the North Shore and are home for the holidays.
