The evening included dinner, dancing, live music, an auction, and east coast fun, including Kiss the Puffin.
Organizer Lorraine O’Quinn spoke to Quinte News late in the evening Saturday.
“I said today it was almost like my wedding day. Showing up and I just felt so emotional and people were really generous tonight (Saturday). We did a fund to need, I know we did at least $85,000 there.”

She says the laid back atmosphere was a big selling feature.
“Just like a Maritime kitchen party, we come together to eat, dance, sing, collaborate and everybody’s doing just that.”
