Everyone seemed to have a great time and we raised $2800 for Brown Bagging For Calgary's Kids Society , which is pretty amazing! This amount will supply nearly 2800 lunches for needy school kids in the Calgary area!
Some of the candidates in attendance were:
Richard Dur Ernest McCrutcheon ( 2 Lanes) Shane Keating ( 2 Lanes) Jane Morgan
Al Bowne Sean Chu Ric Lockhart Malik Amery Kevin Taylor
Chris Harper Roger Crowe Gian-Carlo Carra Shawn Kao ( the Get Kao Girls!)
Zak Pashak Andrew Rodych Judi Vandenbrink Josh Traptow Rory Rotzoll
Robert Guizzo
From the Mayoralty race, we had Craig Burrows and Paul Hughes in attendance. Ric McIver had donated a lane sponsorship for the event, but was unable to attend.
We also had some support from the business community, with Carma Developers, BiFrost Development, Canada Brokerlink Inc. and Principia Communications sponsoring the charity event!
And finally a big thanks to the media personalities that supported us, including CTV Calgary, Global Calgary, Metro Calgary ( Darren Krause) AMP Radio ( Buzz and Blake) FFWD Magazine ( Trevor Scott Howell) Calgary Herald ( Jason Markusoff, Colette Derworiz and Kelly Doody!) and QR77's Mike Blanchard!
Here are some shots from the event...

We had an anonymous donor make a really large donation to the event, on the condition that we would display this wicked sign. ( No, it was not from DJ's family!) Thanks again for your huge donation and for DJ Kelly for going along with the sign!
And some of the CalgaryPolitics.com Chaps! ( DJ, Joey O, Kirk and Jeremy Z and myself)
What a blast! I hope we can definitely do this type of event again!
