On behalf of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of St. Demetrius, we are delighted to invite you and your family to join us for the SnowDrop Gala, Saturday, March 5, 2016, at the historic and elegant, Old Mill Toronto, Brûlé Rooms.
For the past 75 years, the parishioners of UOC St. Demetrius have endeavoured to meet the spiritual, social and cultural needs, both within our community and in outreach to the greater surrounding community. We are now faced with the need to replace or upgrade much of our physical structure. As well, a number of our programmes, successful in the past, need to be brought forward into the 21st century. Phase One of our project has a budget of $300,000; we have currently raised $183,000. We look forward, with your help, to attaining our goal so we may continue our important work here, at St. Demetrius.
Tickets for our SnowDrop Gala are $175.00 per person, which includes parking, coat check, dinner with wine, dancing, exciting entertainment and much more. Tickets for the dance only portion of this event are available for $65.00. Partial tax receipts will be provided.
The following Table sponsorships are available:
To purchase tickets, please call our church office at 416.255.7506.
For your convenience, St. Demetrius now accepts Visa, MasterCard and American Express.
We look forward to having you celebrate with us at the SnowDrop Gala, March 5, 2016.
A wonderful program has been planned to create a truly memorable evening to share with friends and family.
Sincerely,
Darcia Moskaluk-Rutkay Vera Sluzar-MacIntyre Luba Linok-Kalimin
— Co-Chairs, SnowDrop Gala Committee
P.S. Your table sponsorships will count towards your engraved recognition on the 75th Anniversary Wall of Honour.
