Chefs’ Gourmet Dinner: Event Cancelled
In light of the recent announcements made by our Waterloo Region Public Health Unit, we are canceling the Chefs’ Gourmet Dinner taking place on April 6th 2020. We are saddened by this decision but realize that we have a responsibility to keep guests, volunteers and chefs safe. We are offering guests who have already purchased tickets two refund options which are listed below. Please review these options and email Mallory Boyer at mallory.boyer@bbbswr.org letting her know how you would like to be refunded.
Option #1
Donate the $150 ticket cost to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Waterloo Region and receive a tax receipt for the full amount of $150. This will help Big Brothers Big Sisters continue to provide service to local youth in need.
Option #2
Receive a full refund of the ticket cost of $150
We truly appreciate everyone’s support of the Chefs’ Gourmet Dinner and Big Brothers Big Sisters programs.
The 29th annual Chefs’ Gourmet Dinner – April Showers, is a signature culinary event in support of local youth in need of mentorship. Hosted by Best Friends of BBBSWR, the event features Waterloo Region’s finest chefs from 20 renowned restaurants who create an unforgettable dining experience featuring a Champagne Reception accompanied by an array of hors d’oeuvres, and concluding with a specially prepared five-course dinner. The evening also includes Live and Silent Auctions, raffles, live music and more.
