Don Cherry would be proud


$250,000 raised at last night's Ferguslea Sens Soiree! This year's theme was "Graffiti", so I grabbed an old jacket, added spray paint and had it lettered and numbered like a jersey. The whole team signed it, then I auctioned it off for $3000 (to the lucky winner in the photo, bottom right). What an amazing night!

Stuntman, "You're Fired"!


The Senators struggles on the ice this season have been well documented. One area that always seems to do well is fundraising. Saturday night, the annual "Bell Sens Soiree" gala took place at the Hilton Lac Leamy. Over 800 guests along with the entire team were there to raise to over 360k for charity. There's always a fun theme to the event and this year it was Manhattan. From a 5th avenue silent auction area to Broadway acts, your emcee chose to dress up as Donald Trump. All you really need is a sharp tie and a good wig which Malabar provided.

(From left to right) Rinaldo, Frank and Roxanne helped shape the Donald's coiff (Rinaldo added that I'm now the most ugliest man in Ottawa, wonder who I beat?)
























Sens forward Jesse Winchester on stage during the live auction. He was offering an afternoon of fishing with 2 people in his boat which sold for $7000.

This is why Sandy won't be our next Governor General...

A few weeks ago the Main Street Cellar in Manotick hosted a wine tasting for the "Stuntman Stu Red Line Merlot" with proceeds to the Sens foundation. My partner weekday mornings Sandy Sharkey, dropped by to support the cause and posed for some photos. This one ended up on the front page of the Manotick Messenger. Needless to say, she's horrified and wants the folks at the Messenger to tape a nicer photo of her on every issue of the paper.

And, no..this wasn't Sandy's reaction after trying the wine. The rest of the photos from the event can be found here.
