Rotary/Holt Fashion






SPARKLES and sequins are going to be all the rage this holiday season judging by the fashions seen on the catwalk last weekend. On Friday, Nov. 2, at Hollyburn Country Club, the Rotary Club of West Vancouver held their 7th Annual Fashion Show and Dinner. Holt Renfrew provided the clothes and the people of West Vancouver provided the models. Yes, some of our local guys and gals were happy to volunteer as the "Winter Pleasures Rotary models" which only helped add to the fun of the entire evening. Proceeds raised go to support the CHILD Foundation (for Crohn's disease) and to the North Shore Search and Rescue.

Grace McCarthy and husband Ray need little introduction. Since leaving politics, she has devoted much of her time to the CHILD foundation.
