Great Celebration

The Prince Edward Island Association of Healthcare Auxiliaries marked our 50th anniversary with a wonderful celebration at the Royal Canadian Legion in Ellerslie on April 26, 2014.  We had an excellent turnout from all five member auxiliaries and a few special guests.

After a delicious lunch from Between Friends catering, our guest speaker the Hon. Marion Reid gave a address that was both entertaining and thought-provoking.  There is no one like her!

Here are some photos from our day.  We are so proud of our groups and the great communities who who help us to support good healthcare for all.
