But once again the people of Scugog and surrounding communities greeted our taggers happily and dug deep into their pockets. The Auxiliary to Lakeridge Health Port Perry are thrilled to report that Tag Days 2019 brought us $10,137 which will be used to keep our wonderful hospital staff well-equipped and ready to serve their patients and their families. Thank you Mary Ann and Focus on Scugog for promoting our event and the businesses that welcomed our taggers to their doorsteps. And thank you to you, the donors, for your gifts and kind words of encouragement. The Auxiliary members love to serve our community and hear your stories and we deeply appreciate your support.
