Harvest Project Summer  Splash at North Vancouver, North Shore Holiday Inn

Aug 24, 2006

By Catherine Barr

 

The North Shore Harvest Project is known for helping people out by giving them "a hand up, not a hand out". The charity's good work however requires the committment of several volunteers and directors who work tirelessly for the cause. Last week, at North Van's Holiday Inn &  Suites, the organization held their "Summer Splash" event complete with fundraising dinner, auction and live entertainment.

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.
