Calgary Dinner & Fun Money Casino Evening - September 16, 2008
The Calgary spirit for Canada's Sports Hall of Fame was definitely present as a full house gathered at the first annual CSHOF Charity Fun Money Casino evening.
The Skyservice Private Jet terminal's aircraft were a perfect back drop for this special event. Dave Kelley served as the Master of Ceremonies and event co-chairs, Doug Mitchell and Bob Hamilton introduced the Honoured Members and Celebrity guests to the audience including: Stephen Ames, Jim Peplinski, Normie Kwong, Ron and Marg Southern, Steve Podborski, Roger Jackson, Karen Magnussen and Nancy Greene.
Congratulations to Donald Power, this year's Grand Prize winner of a trip for two to the 2009 RBC Canadian Open in Toronto.
