Vancouver's Dr. Peter Centre
One Year Anniversary

Sep 19, 2004

By Catherine Barr

 

What are you passionate about? That was the big question last week as the Dr. Peter Centre celebrated its first anniversary with activities, an open house and an exclusive gala event that featured 12 of the city's top restaurants. "Passions" , held on Sep. 19, represented the ideals of Dr. Peter Jepson-Young who died from AIDS in 1992. Now his legacy lives on in this place that offers comfort care and a home to those in need.

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.
