The Golf Ball wins BiZBash
Award
March 12, 2007, Brampton, Ontario
- The Golf Ball, the inaugural signature gala of William Osler
Health Centre Foundation, recently captured a BiZBash.TO Event
Style Award for Best Nonprofit Event Concept for 2006.
The
Golf Ball is a fusion of elegance and sport. Held
last November, the event melded the etiquette and camaraderie
of a golf game with the fine dining, signature cocktails and entertainment
of a black-tie affair. The Best Nonprofit Event Concept is awarded
to the organization whose concept demonstrates originality, creativity
and an innovative and effective theme.
“This award was won because of a tremendous
team effort by Foundation staff members and our volunteers paying
careful attention to detail and to what donors really expected
out of a signature gala event,” says Kate MacDonald, the
Foundation’s Vice President, Development. “We rely
on the generosity of our donors to further health care excellence
in this community. This was our chance to give back to the supporters
of Etobicoke General Hospital, Peel Memorial Hospital and Brampton
Civic Hospital by dreaming up a concept that they would remember
and enjoy for many years.”
The Golf Ball 2007 gala takes place on Saturday,
November 3 at the Toronto Congress Centre. For sponsorship or

BiZBash Media, the publisher of trade magazines
and websites, has offices in New York, Los Angeles, Miami, and
Toronto. The Event Style Show, held March 6 & 7 provided a
showcase for the Awards Presentation as well as a two-day venue
for event planners and the corporate special events industry to
network and exchange resources.
