In support of Victoria Hospice, some good friends have organized an amazing night for folks who like to dance! This will be your chance to get your dancing shoes on and get out on the floor � Hop, groove, boogie or jive the night away! All of the proceeds from this event will be going to Victoria Hospice to help provide end-of-life care and services within our own community.

There's lots of great entertainment lined up. Not only will the amazing band �Old School� be rocking it, there are plenty of other fun things - like the balloon pop. Pop the right ones and you can win some great prizes - last year there were over 100 winners!

Tickets are on sale now but seating is limited - so get your tickets fast! This amazing annual event won�t have tickets available for long!

More information can be found at www.victoriahospice.org.

Victoria Hospice is a registered charity that has, since 1980, provided end-of-life care focused on palliative treatment. Nurses, counsellors, spiritual caregivers, physicians and trained volunteers provide comfort for the patient and support for the family, rather than a cure for progressive and life-limiting illness. Care is offered in patients� homes, within our 17-bed in-patient unit, and as specific medical consultation to patients in other health care facilities. Over 400 trained volunteers provide companionship and support. Victoria Hospice offers bereavement support to families for up to one year following at death. Roughly 50% of Victoria Hospice's annual 7 million dollars in operating costs are not covered by our health care system, and must be funded through fundraising events such as the �Cycle of Life Tour� and community donations to our Victoria Hospice and Palliative Care Foundation.
