At the Sunrise Galloping Gourmets fundraising event this Saturday, 2:30pm, there is an opportunity to meet, not only CBC celebrity chef Kary Osmond but also to speak in person with Canada’s Country Gentleman, Tommy Hunter.

Hunter is an honorary director of Sunrise and has donated for auction an embroidered suit from one of his stage shows and, in addition, two signed complete sets of his CDs.

Also included in that item for auction is dinner for four with Hunter at the Aberfoyle Mill.

The fundraiser is an opportunity to meet a Canadian icon, while at the same time supporting children and adults with disabilities in a unique therapeutic riding program.

Other auction items include a condominium for a week in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, an exclusive diamond pendant and earring set, a condominium for a week in Panama City, Panama, a culinary basket containing cookbooks signed by several celebrity chefs (including Michael Smith, Kary Osmond, Anne Lindsay and Trish Magwood), aprons signed by Smith and Osmond, a bottle of 1982 Château Mouton Rothschilde wine from Bordeaux, France.

Other auction baskets include a family night, a spa basket, wine and cheese, and more.

Visitors can enjoy an afternoon in the country, watch the students perform musical rides, and indulge in gourmet country dining.

Tickets are $100, with a $30 tax receipt. All proceeds are for children’s programs.
