Sundays 10 a.m. C o m m u n i t y C h u r c h While the Scugog Council for the Arts always pays tribute to Scugog one way or another in its an- nual Mayors Gala for the Arts this years party will feature all things musical. Throughout the evening Gala guests will learn just how Scugog Rocks and why Port Perry is such a wonderful place. With so much talent in our commu- nity and a mandate to promote all the arts in Scugog the Council for the Arts felt a nod to our musical talent would be a fitting theme. Port Perrys own talented musician Lynn McDonald will be the MC this year. The SCA has many surprises in store this year musi- cal and otherwise. Focus wasnt able to discover what the main entertainment for the evening will be but the SCA Administrator and Gala committee member Eveline Klamt promises it will be fun. Weve got many irons in the fire and are looking forward to a very harmonious pun intended evening. Mayor Tom Rowett says dont let the cover of Focus fool you. Im looking forward to the event however I have no musical or vocal talent so if Im asked to come onstage Im pre-denying it. The evening will once again open with a cocktail re- ception starting at 6 p.m. with specialties from Old Flame Brewery and a delicious sit-down gourmet dinner pro- vided by Pelican Events Catering. Of course there will be wonderful offerings in both silent and live auction items. The Mayors Gala never fails to provide superb opportunities to pick up fabulous works of art win amazing prizes and do some creative Christmas-gift shopping. From the spectacular lobby decorations designed and installed by Jennifer Hardie of META4 Gallery to the final sold call by the auctioneer Gary Hill an entertaining performer in his own right and a few new prizes and surprises in between the Mayors Gala for the Arts is a memorable event every November. The SCA would like to thank once again Baagwating Community Association Vos Independent Grocer and Gus Brown Pontiac Buick GMC for their ongoing sponsor- ship of the Mayors Gala for the Arts. Their support in pre- senting this event is greatly valued by the Scugog Council for the Arts as it helps them spread arts benefits further into the community. The SCA believes the arts are essential to the quality of life in Scugog and surrounding area and takes its role as a voice and home for the arts seriously. The Council provides an artistic environment for the communi- ty growth for its artists and services for the organizations members.
