Hi All in the Metro Vancouver area:

Suanne and I will be attending the 2009 Taste BC event and was wondering if anyone of you would like to join us. The event will be held on January 22nd which is a Thursday at the Hyatt Regency and it goes to supporting the Oak Tree Clinic of the BC Children’s Hospital.

Suanne and I are not attending this event just because this is a food and wine event but because it goes to supporting a worthy cause. We know first hand the important work of the BC Children’s Hospital because we were beneficiaries ourselves when one of our boys required medical attention some years back. We know the hospital very well and had great respect for the work of the doctors and the professionalism of the workers there. The 2009 Taste BC event this year goes specifically to the Oak Tree Clinic.

On the food side, this event will bring together some of the finest in the food and beverage industry. It would be great if you could come and join Suanne and I and indulge in tastings from some of the finest restaurants, wineries, breweries and cheese purveyors in BC. Along with great food and drink, there will also be live music, door prizes and a silent auction too.

Tickets are $49.99 and can be purchased at Liberty Locations. Just send Suanne or I an email if you are interested in going. It’ll be fun.

Ben
