WHAT: The 6th Annual Fight To End Cancer Charity Gala, benefiting the Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation.
Our Official Media Day last week was EPIC (View Article and Photos).  We have finally reached fight night, after nearly a year of preparation and training!  Our Las Vegas-style, pre-show entertainment, will commence after a glamorous cocktail reception and gourmet dinner.  This year’s official Master of Ceremonies will be Angie Seth, weekend anchor of Global News at 6. Canadian Pop Sensation, Karl Wolf will be performing as our feature entertainer.  The evening’s main attraction will be our 2017 fighters, who will step inside the ring to literally fight to end cancer, in a fully sanctioned boxing bout.
WHY:  Ten courageous men and women have spent the past six months training in true Olympic style boxing, in support of the Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation.  Help them reach their 2017 goal of $200,000.00!
