2008 - An Evening of Summer Dreams - Barn Raising

We are thrilled to announce that our 7th biennial gala 'An Evening of Summer Dreams' on Thursday, April 17th 2008, at the Royal Ontario Museum was a huge success!  Not only were we able to surpass our fundraising expectations, raising $870,000, but over 600 attendees enjoyed an inspirational evening that they won't soon forget.  Jennifer Valentyne of Citytv was our official Master of Ceremonies, sharing stories of her experiences as an Ooch volunteer.

Throughout the evening, guests enjoyed a silent auction featuring over 170 items, cocktails, delicious appetizers, a five course dinner, and a fantastic live auction.

One of the evenings most memorable moments was listening to the inspiring words of Frannie Murray. Frannie spoke of her experiences at camp, the friends she’s made and most importantly, her love of Ooch. 

This year’s gala raised much needed funds to build the barn – a 7,600 square foot multi-purpose indoor activity space at our campsite in Muskoka.

Thank you to our many sponsors, donors, volunteers and campers who helped make this special evening possible.
