Canadian Cancer Society 10th Annual Diamond Ball at Fairmont Hotel Vancouver

Apr 1, 2006

By Catherine Barr

 

April 1st marked the 10th Anniversary of the Canadian Cancer Society, BC and Yukon Division, Diamond Ball. The ballrooms at the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver were magically transformed as the event whisked you away to celebrate "Midnight at the Oasis". Auction items, belly dancers, live entertainment and more helped raise close to a million dollars for this very worthwhile cause. The guest list included many influencial North Shore residents. See who you know.

Vancouver's best events and celebrity functions are all archived here. Vancouver pubs, clubs, nightclubs, gala events and fundraisers are included. Thanks for viewing.

Due to server capacity, you will not be able to access or click through to the larger photographs. With over 250,000 unique visits each month, our site would quickly exceed the amount of memory needed.

If you would like to receive a copy of a photograph, then please send an email and enclose the details of the event, the date, the name, the photo number and the names of the people in the photograph. Also, for security reasons, I prefer not to email copies of pictures to anyone other than the people who are actually in the photo. Thanks.
